Warren Russell Rummell

December 16, 1920 — September 21, 2016

Warren Russell Rummell, 95 of New Philadelphia, died Wednesday, September 21, 2016 in New Dawn Retirement Community at Dover following a period of declining health.

A son of the late Walter and Etta Mae (LeMasters) Rummell, Warren was born December 16, 1920 at Paris, Ohio.

Warren’s true passion was farming. He would work many hours each day simply to support his family but would hurry home at the end of each shift to tend to the farm.

Although farming was his passion, there wasn’t anything more important to him than his family and his love for them. Words cannot express how much they loved him and will miss him.

He is survived by his wife, Emily (Dillehay) Rummell whom he married on November 28, 1943; three daughters, Susan (Allan) Ferguson of Republic, Washington, Dana (Brian) Sweet of St Augustine, Florida and Nita (Clyde) Heavilin of New Philadelphia; 10 grandchildren; 15 great-grandchildren and one brother.

Warren was preceded in death by his parents; two daughters, Andrea Beckley and Betsey Baxter; two sisters and three brothers.
