APPEL -- Mary Ellen Storts, born July 10, 1933 in Sapulpa, OK to Dowell Ray and Katherine Jennings Ray, their second child, having an older brother whom survives her. She was first married in 1955 to Dr. Daniel Storts. She met Dr. Storts, who was not yet a physician, while she was a nursing student at St. John Hospital School of Nursing. She received her nursing degree in 1954. Dr. Storts preceded her in death when he died of injuries he received in an automobile accident in 1979. She remarried William Appel who continues to reside in Fort Gibson, OK. She is survived by: her 4 sons, David Paul, Valrico, FL, Matthew Glenn, Imperial, CA, Daniel Gregory, Owasso, OK, and Donald Gary, Jackson, TN, all Eagle Scouts and children of her married to Dr. Daniel Storts, a physician with the former Glass-Nelson Clinic of Tulsa. She is grandmother to 15 children, one of whom preceded her. She is also survived by both her mother, Katherine McNeely of Fort Gibson, and a brother, David Eugene Ray of Phoenix, AZ. Mary Ellen was best known for her diligent efforts in 1977-1980 to secure an all emergency telephone system (911) for the Tulsa region. This culminated in success in February 1980 when Tulsa Mayor Jim Inhofe and the Tulsa City Council approved a grant to establish the first all emergency telephone system in Oklahoma. The 911-telephone number has been continued and elevated to a prime example of citizen involvement in a civic project. Governor Nigh appointed Mary Ellen to a statewide 911 committee, resulting in the system being established in place for the entire state of Oklahoma. She then consulted with Minnesota, Ohio, Oregon and the City of Chicago in the establishment and development of their 911 systems. She served as the President of the Auxiliary of the Tulsa Medical Soceity and the Women's Auxiliary to the Oklahoma Medical Society; was active in Republican political campaigns; and worked with Tulsa's Red Glove Revue for years. Mary Ellen enjoyed square dancing for many years, where she served as an officer of several square dance clubs and was an inspiration to many as she overcame the diseases that eventually claimed her. She will be missed by her many square dance friends. She was a member of the First United Methodist Church of Fort Gibson, OK. As a family, we will miss our catalyst and constant mentor.
