Mary F. Stahl 1937-2025

Mary was born a premie at home on July 2, 1937, in the small village of Hillville, Pa., on the shore of the Allegheny River.

She was the wife of the late Robert “Bob” Stahl and the daughter of the late Alfred and Leona Radaker Rumbaugh.

As a young girl, her family moved her from a one-room schoolhouse to Warren G. Harding High School in Warren. After moving to Warren, she helped her mother with her two younger brothers.

She was an active member of the Church of God Reformation Movement. She met her future husband, Bob, at the First Church of God on Parkman Road in Warren. They embarked on their life together in 1955 and were happily married for 55 years. In retirement, they went to the First Church of God in Newton Falls.

In addition to her sons, Mary cared for 23 foster children from birth to adoption. Mary’s quick wit, sharp tongue and life advice will be forever cherished by those who were fortunate enough to have spent time with her.

An accomplished baker, Mary’s pies, cakes and cookies were loved by family and friends alike. She was a rock to her family and will be missed by all who loved her.

She is survived by her three sons, Robert of North Jackson, John (John) of Warren and Mark (Hilaire Brockmeyer) of Denver, Colorado; her grandchildren, Jarred, Christopher (Chelsey), Dagmar and Ezra; her brother, Bud (Denise); her nephews, David and Trent; and nieces, Jessica and Jennifer.

She was predeceased by her sister, Bonnie Jean Rumbaugh; her brother, Dr. Jack Rumbaugh; and her nephew, Michael Rumbaugh.

Arrangements are through the Lane Funeral Homes, Roberts-Clark Chapel in Warren.

A graveside service officiated by the Rev. David Guess will be held 11:30 a.m. Thursday, June 12, at Mount Calvary Cemetery, Dutch Hill, Pa., followed by a fellowship luncheon at 3 p.m. at the home of John Stahl and John Wallace in Warren.
