Imogene Cline, 93, formerly of Woodsfield and more recently,
rural Jeromesville, died Friday, Nov. 10, 2017, at Crystal Care Nursing Home.
She was born June 15, 1924, in Monroe County, the daughter of
Richard E. and Bertha Fliehman Scott.
Mrs. Cline was described by her family as the best mother,
mother-in-law and grandma, often referred to as on of God’s angels on earth.
She definitely deserved a 5-star rating. Treasured memories will remain of her
totally unselfish heart, her pies, pickled beets and macaroni and fruit salads.
She was first in line to help with anything that needed done, including hoeing
the garden, picking and snapping green beans, painting, and babysitting her
beloved grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She had a special love for
babies and could soothe the fussiest of them with a soft sung [sic--song],
“Baby-bye - oh bye-oh-baby bye.” She could cut corn off the cob faster and
better than anyone never cutting the cob.
Over the many years that she and Woodrow, her husband of 62
years, to whom she was devoted, lived on the farm, many family members spent
their vacations with them. She loved the company and always welcomed visitors.
She missed Woodrow and never quite got over his passing in May of 2004. She had
an uncanny ability of seeing the best in everyone, except anyone that hurt her
children verbally or physically, and then the wrath of a Scotch-Irish lady came
alive.
She was preceded in death by her parents, her husband, a
grandson, Todd Cline, and a great-grandson, Corey Cline.
She will be greatly missed by her three sons, Dick (Nancy),
Jim (Linda) and Chuck (Bonnie); along with her 10 grandchildren, Michelle
Brooks, of Ashland, Annette (Brent) Kash, of Savannah, Beth Minnich, of
Savannah, Dawn (Matt) Martin, of Attica, Bobbi Jo Maniglia, of Auburn Twp.,
Douglas (Lauren) Cline, of Wooster, Jennifer (Brian) Beegley, of Wooster, Amy
Jordan, of Ashland, Jill (Chris) Wachtel, of Wooster, and Erica (Jason) Crain,
of Hillard; 26 great-grandchildren; and two great-great-grandchildren. We all
love you, Mom.
Services will be held at noon Wednesday, Nov. 15, 2017, at
Fickes Funeral Home in Jeromesville, with Minister Tim Nowlin officiating.
Burial will be in Ashland County Memorial Park. Friends may call two hours
prior to the service at the funeral home.

Beverly Gayle (Oldemeyer) Decker, Long-time resident of the
Black Forest, passed away at home on February 15, 2017, after a diagnosis of
brain cancer last fall. She faced her illness with the acceptance and grace she
demonstrated her entire life. Born December 26, 1928, in Brush, Colorado to
Clarence Oldemeyer and Gayle (King) Oldemeyer, she studied music at Hastings
College in Hastings, Nebraska from 1946 -1950, where she met her husband,
Harold R. Decker. They were married January 21, 1951, in Brush, Colorado. Her
early years with Harold were spent in small communities around Arizona, eastern
Colorado, and Kansas, and they settled in Black Forest in 1970.
While wrangling five children and her husband took a great
deal of her time, Beverly's life was always filled with music. She began
playing piano and organ in her church as a teenager and served as organist at
Black Forest Lutheran Church from its founding in 1971, playing her last
service on Mother's Day last year. Many young people benefitted from her fine
accompanist skills as she played with choirs as well as vocal and instrumental
soloists in schools ranging from the tiny Woodlin School District in eastern
Colorado to Air Academy Junior High. Beverly was a founding member of the Soli
Deo Gloria choir in Colorado Springs, and once her four boys were out of the
house, sang for two seasons in the Colorado Springs Opera Company.
Black Forest Lutheran Church could be called Beverly's
second home. A founding member, she served in every imaginable capacity,
helping the fledgling congregation grow to the vibrant community it has become
today. Her busy schedule was compounded as she managed the logistical aspects
of the family business, Decker Library Book Service, until Harold's death in
2010. Her life was given to her family and to the Lord.
Beverly's life was much enriched by her membership in
P.E.O., an organization whose mission is promoting educational opportunities
for women; she was inducted into P.E.O by her mother in 1947. Beverly served in
many officer's positions in her local chapter, and she was elected to the state
board in 1988, serving as president in
1993.
She is survived by her five loving children: Steven J.
Decker of Ontario, Oregon; Michael J. Decker of Colorado Springs, Colorado;
Glenn A. Decker of Darien, Illinois; John R. Decker of San Antonio, Texas; and
Barbara K. Decker of Denver, Colorado. Additionally, she leaves behind 13
grandchildren, seven great-grandchildren, and many, many friends. She was
preceded in death by her husband and two brothers: Donald L. Oldemeyer and
Robert K. Oldemeyer. Services will be
held at 11:00 A.M. on Saturday, February 18, at Black Forest Lutheran Church, 12455 Black Forest Road,
Colorado Springs, CO. In lieu of flowers, memorials to Pikes Peak Hospice
Foundation, 825 E. Pikes Peak Ave., Suite 600, Colorado Springs, Colorado, or
Black Forest Lutheran Church will be appreciated. In addition, contributions
may be made to the P.E.O. Foundation.
