Mary A. Rumple, nee Shock, age 76 was born in Coshocton County, Ohio, August 17th 1845, and departed life at the home of her eldest daughter, Mrs. Charles Brunstetter of near Rockford Ohio June 14th 1922 aged 76 years 9 month and 27 days.
On April 11th 1877 she was united in marriage with William Rumple who with an infant daughter preceeded her in death. After the death of her husband she made her home with her three daughters, namely Mrs. Charles Brunstetter, Mrs. Clarence Brunstetter and Mrs. Charley Morrow.
Her early religious training was in the Lutheran faith, but when she was 14 years of age she was converted to God under the pastorate of Rev. William Miller, and joined the United Brethren Church, of which she was a respected member at the time of her death. She was a charter member of the Fairview U.B. Church, altho in the last few years she seldom attended services. She made earnest effort to keep her children and grandchildren in church, and as long as she had a home of her own it was a great pleasure to her to minister to the needs of God's servants. Indeed her home was the preacher's home.
While she had no special talent for singing, the one song of her life was "Rock of Ages Cleft for Me", realizing the true sentiment of this song she sang it through a few weeks before her death. During her late affliction her suffering was intense, but she bore it with patience. She was not afraid to die and was often heard to say she wanted to go to her Heavenly Home. She was tenderly cared for by her children who tried to make her last days on earth as pleasant as possible.
She leaves to mourn their loss three daughters and three sons, five grandaughters and ten grandsons; three stepdaughters and one step son; one sister, Mrs. Katheran Allen of Lima, Ohio; two brothers, William Shock of Elida Ohio and Peter Shock of Marion Michigan and other relatives and friends.
The funeral service was from the Fairview Church Friday afternoon, conducted by Rev. A. M. Johnson and Rev. J. M. Sherer. The burial was made in Riverside Cemetery.
