Obituary
Mernadine Louise (Neymeyer) Castle, age 89, Quinter, passed away Sunday, September 4, 2016 at Gove County Medical Center, Quinter. She was born March 9, 1927, in Quinter, to Claude and Hannah (Jamison) Neymeyer.
Mernadine attended a two-room country school, as a child, then graduated from Quinter High School. She loved to work in the garden, growing flowers. She was an animal lover, having raised many kittens and dogs. In June of 1943, she was united in marriage to Marvin Castle. To this union, four children were born. After their children were grown, Mernadine and Marvin enjoyed traveling most winters to Arizona, Texas, Florida, and California. She was an active member for many years in the Gynefealita Club and the Stitch and Chatter Club. As a hobby, Mernadine enjoyed doing oil paintings. She cherished family get-togethers, and always looked forward the bi-annual Jamison Family Reunion. Her kind heart and pleasant memories will remain with many.
Survivors include two sons, Fred (Debbie) Castle of McCammon, Idaho, and Alan Castle of Bella Vista, Arkansas; one daughter, Connie Castle of Grainfield; six grandchildren, Shannon (Tiffany) Hopkins of Overland Park, Michelle Bishop of Wichita, Stacy (Kelly) Wood of North Tonawanda, New York, Leithanail Rich of McAllester, Oklahoma, Jennifer Jones of Omaha, Nebraska, and Michelle Jones of Overland Park; eleven great-grandchildren; and one sister, Neva Mae Bailey of Sabetha. She was preceded in death by her parents; her husband; a son, Jamie; and a brother Erwin Neymeyer.
Family hosted graveside memorial services will be 2:00 p.m., Sunday, September 11, 2016 at Baker Township Cemetery, Quinter. There will be no visitation as cremation was chosen.
