Evonne Stechschulte
On February 13, 2020, Evonne G. Stechschulte passed away peacefully in her sleep at her home.

As a lifelong Minster native, Evonne was the loving and devoted mother of nine children, 30 grandchildren, and 18 great-grandchildren.
She will be sorely missed and is survived by her children, Lisa Stechschulte, Columbus; Jean (Mike) Bazeley, Cincinnati; John (Nann) Stechschulte, Minster; Julie (Tim) Trushaw, Dothan, Alabama; Ann (Steve) Gruber, Minster; Ken (Kathleen) Stechschulte, Kettering; the Rev.

Evonne was a dedicated wife and mother who treasured her children and grandchildren, first and foremost. She will leave a legacy of faith, family, and a zest for life. Her joyful and fun-loving personality helped her make friends wherever she went. She loved music and dancing, sharing stories and a good joke at family gatherings on her outdoor patio.
