OBITUARIES

Linda Wotowa, Mathew Benjamin, Dolezal, Douglas E. Lehman Sr., Linda Mae Lohr, Stanley Moses

My Beloved “Doll” Linda Wotowa went home to be with the Lord on December 6, 2016, making that journey, resting comfortably, in her sleep, with her loving husband Mark at her side. It is a mixed bag of emotions. We have been grieving for so long over her ness. We are very sad and will miss her terribly; yet, Joyful that she is home, dancing and praising God. Surely she found a tambourine .... She has been made whole again, no more suffering, her lungs able to fill fully with air once again and her eyesight restored. “And two shall be one flesh”... “ATSBOF” how do you undo that... she was part of Mark .... and Mark part of her... their anniversary is January 3rd. It would have been 41 years ....

Mark had the honor of being her care giver for well over 4 years and her full time care giver for just under one year. God made a way where there was no way for that to happen... a real God story .... Linda spent 4-1/2 continuous months in 5 hospitals not to mention other hospital stays. Linda and Mark vowed together... no more hospitals, no nursing homes... they were in this together and the Lord honored that.

Mark’s beloved “Doll” had a smile that took his breath away... yes every time even up to the very end. When she smiled he knew he could make it through another day, and so could she…. “I miss her .... ”

Linda is survived by her husband William Mark; oldest son Joshua and his wife Amberly; youngest son Benjamin and his girlfriend Amy; grandchildren, Isaac, Anna, Elijah, Philip, Juda, and Alexis; brothers, Tom (Candy) Ruple, Mark (Dilha) Ruple, and Eric (Wanda) Ruple.

Linda passed away in the winter and did not care for it much but she loved the fall, the trees and colors.

Linda’s final resting place will be Evergreen Cemetery in Painesville. The Behm Family Funeral Home of Madison is assisting Linda’s family during this time of need. Friends may leave condolences online at: www.behmfuneral.com
