Continuously serving Kosciusko County since 1854
Marcile "Marty" Mehl, age 94, of Milford, passed away peacefully at Goshen Hospital on Oct. 7, 2025.
She was born on Feb. 23, 1931, to Eldon and Maude Yoder in Ligonier. She graduated from Topeka High School in 1949. She married her husband Thomas Mehl on Dec. 31, 1951. Throughout her life, Marcile demonstrated an unwavering dedication to her family and had a loving spirit.
Her professional journey included valuable years spent at Essex Wire, Dytronics and The Paper. She found joy in a variety of pastimes, embracing the thrill of snowmobiling, camping and the simple pleasure of mowing her lawn. She cherished her moments spent watching western television shows, particularly enjoying classics like “Gunsmoke,” “Matlock” and “The Andy Griffith Show.” Her evenings were often filled with laughter as she engaged in spirited games of Euchre and watched Family Feud.
She was deeply devoted to her family, a testament to which is her legacy that includes her children: Vicki (Ray) Neff, Gloria Moody and Thomas (Sue) Mehl, who reside in Milford. Her family extends to her grandchildren: Dana, Heather, Darcy, Darla, Shanda and Charity; as well as 10 great-grandchildren and three great-great-grandchildren. She is also survived by her siblings, Meredith (Eloise) Yoder and Merl (Sue) Yoder, who will carry fond memories of her with them.
Marcile was preceded in death by her husband, Thomas Mehl, who passed in 2019; parents; and her granddaughter, Lillian. She was also preceded by her siblings: Maxine, Marie, Mildred, Maurice, Marion, Mervin and Milan, each of whom left a significant void in her heart.
Marcile's Life Celebration will be on Oct. 13 at Titus Funeral Home, 1001 S. Huntington St., Syracuse. Visitation will be held on the same day from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., followed by a funeral service commencing at 2 p.m. with Pastor Lee Compson of Milford First Brethren Church. Burial will follow to Milford Cemetery, where she will be laid to rest next to her husband.
