Obituaries

Ruth Mack Dies In Hong Kong A cablegram has brought word to E. C. McCullough of the death of his daughter, Ruth McCullough Mack. She died Wednesday, Oct. 5, in Hong Kong. Born in Greencastle in 1908, Mrs. Mack graduated from Greencastle High School and DePauw University and received her Master’s degree from Radcliffe College in 1931. She spent most of her adult life in the Orient as teacher and missionary. On graduating from Radcliffe she accepted a position as English teacher at Lignam University in Canton, China. Almost from the first day of her arrival in China her home became the refuge for the needy, fostering children and families, sponsoring college students who would have been unable to complete their education without her aid. The disruptive years in China found Dr. and Mrs. Mack teaching at the University of Manila and when she was forced to leave the Philippines as the Japanese invaded at the beginning of World War n she returned to Greencastle with her two small children, Lorna and Meiling. Teaching in the English Department at DePauw University she continued her missionary efforts by lecturing and fund raising for the refugee Chinese children. At the close of the war Ruth returned to Lignam U. for a short time only, to be forced to flee her home again as the Communists took over the Chinese mainland. She and her husband became refugees themselves in the Crown Colony of Hong Kong. Chung Chi College, meaning “Honor Christ’* was at length established by the joint effort of several American churches to meet the desperate need for higher education among the refugees. Mrs. Mack was soon back at her job as English professor and her husband, trained as a doctor in veterinary science filled a great need as biol-

ogy teacher.

Carrying a full teaching schedule, co-authoring several English text books which are being used extensively in the Philippines and in Hong Kong she continued as a dynamic church teacher in the Knowloon Union Church, her class room filled with young Chinese Christains, British service men and government workers stationed

in Hong Kong.

Ruth Mack is survived by her husband, Dr. K. C. Mack of Hong Kong; two daughters, Mrs. Max Cordonier of Cape Girardeau, Mo., and Mrs. Brian Holm of Oxford, Ohio; two grandchildren; her father, E. C. McCullough of Greencastle; four sisters and a brother, Mrs. Charles Vandersluis of Bemidjl, Minn., Mrs. Robert Gould of Greencastle, Mrs. Luther Dillon, South Bend, Mrs. Robert Krietzer, Whittier, Calif., and John McCullough of Greencastle. She was preceded in death by her mother, Edna McCullough, and a brother, Wilbur Lee.

In Memory In memory of Marvin Powers, who passed away Oct. 7, 1965. Memories are all that we have left, And no one can take them away. W« will live them over and over And new ones were made every day. A blonde headed fellow qn the street, Or someone’s laugh or smile Can bring a sudden remembrance Of the one we had for awhile. Things around us change daily But memories are all from the past. So, although our sorrows have dimmed, Great memories will always last. Gone is our good old buddy. Gone is a very dear friend. We’ll go on living in memories Until we meet again. Jim, Dave & Steve
