Margaret 'Anne' Stineman
Margaret "Anne" Stineman, 66,
of Newton, died Saturday (June 9, 2007) at her home. She was born on
March 15, 1941, the daughter of Marguerite Brooker Winger and Jack
Martin Hall Sr. in Wichita. On July 19, 1959, she married Richard
Stineman at First Christian Church in Newton. Anne was a member of
the First Christian Church and served as a Deaconess, a member of the
Christian Women's Fellowship (CWF') and many other church
organizations and activities. Anne was a 1959 Newton
High School graduate. She remained very
involved with the alumni and was responsible for organizing the
reunions and hosting the 50-year alumni brunch at her home. During
her lifetime, she was a homemaker, providing a loving and nurturing
environment for her children, and, occasionally, their friends. Her
home was one that was a safe and loving place for many children. She
also worked for many years at The Newton Kansan.
A member of the O.E.S of Newton and a
former member of the Jaycee Jaynes, she served a term of vice
president. She was very active during her lifetime. While her
daughters were in the Girl Scout/Brownies group, she served as their
troop leader and helped organize the cookie sales. She enjoyed
knitting, making special Christmas stockings for her family. She also
enjoyed antiqueing, traveling and was an avid sightseer.
Her grandchildren were the love of her
life. They lovingly referred to her as "Mamo." Margaret
Anne Stineman will be missed greatly, but she left a legacy among her
family and friends. Anne always believed in Santa Claus and her
children and grandchildren do too. She will always be remembered and
loved.
