Mary Pell

Mary Francis Pell, daughter of Andrew Gustaf and Zula Bell Atkins Ruberg, was born, August 15, 1925 in Providence, Illinois and later moved to Princeton, Illinois where she continued to live until 2011. She departed this life, July 3, 2017, in Ozark Care and Rehab, Osage Beach, Missouri at the age of ninety one years, ten months, and eighteen days. She was preceded in death by her husband, Chester Pell, her parents Andrew and Zula (Atkins) Ruberg, a sister Gladys Hunter, and a brother John Ruberg. She is survived by sister, Jo (Joyce) Williams of Camdenton, Missouri; two stepsons Kenneth Pell and wife Deanna of Florida, and Charles Pell and wife Miko of Seattle, Washington; one step-daughter, Sharon Kunkel and husband Chris of Granville, Illinois; four nieces, one nephew, and many other relatives and friends. Mary made a profession of faith and was a member of First United Methodist Church, where she was very active in the choir and Women’s Guild. In Princeton, Illinois, Mary worked as a switchboard operator and at Rudy Patrick Seed Co. She was never idle- during the course of her lifetime, Mary spent her spare time crocheting over 100 Afghans to give away as gifts. She truly was a kind and loving person, always doing things for others. We celebrate her life and accomplishments, and will treasure the memories she created for her family and friends. Funeral services will be held at 11:00 a.m., July 6, 2017, in Allee-Holman-Howe Funeral Home, Camdenton, Missouri. Burial will follow in Garber Memorial Estates, Laurie, Missouri.
