Listen to Obituary
Minnie "Maude" Armstrong Schultheis, 88, of Ransom, died Tuesday in hospice at Regional Hospital of Scranton. She was preceded in death by her first husband, Willard Armstrong, and second husband, Leo "Hap" Schultheis.
Born in Lockville, Pa., Maude, also known as Naughty Maudey, lived her life to the fullest. She was known for her humor, faith in God and personal strength. She will be dearly missed by her family and friends because she always made any trip or gathering special by her love and fun personality.
As well as being a member of the Bethel United Methodist Church, Minnie belonged to many offices of the United Methodist Women, Wyoming Conference, School of Missions and served on the board of directors for Wesley Village. She was also an avid bowler at local bowling alleys and earned her 25 year plaque with USBC National Tournament.
A part of Minnie's daily routine was to be a very competitive player of the "marble game" and cards, in which she always managed to defeat her opponents, or, shall we say, cheat her way to a win, according to the defeated. She was never short of cookies for her great-grandchildren who visited her almost every day, and each year she generously canned enough tomatoes, among other vegetables, for four families. Mostly, she enjoyed spending time with loved ones and always took the opportunity do lots of traveling.
Surviving are a son, Richard Armstrong and wife, Sharon, Forty Fort; daughter, Elaine Bartholme, Ransom; a brother, Joseph Dymond, Falls; five grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren.
She was also preceded in death by a son, Dale; a daughter, Charlotte Redmond; a sister, Ruey; and three brothers, Daniel, Edward and Stuart.
The family would like to extend a heart felt "thank you" to the staff in Hospice at Regional Hospital of Scranton for its kindness and care of Minnie during her final days.
The funeral will be held Saturday at 10 a.m. from the Lawrence E. Young Funeral Home, 418 S. State St., Clarks Summit, with services by the Rev. Thomas Mott. Interment will follow in the Pittston City Cemetery.
Friends may call Friday, 4 to 7 p.m. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to the donor's favorite charity.
