Mabel Mundy, 84, passed away April 28, 2025, in Huntington, Ind.

For 27 years, 1987-2014, Mabel worked in the United Brethren National Office. She spent the first 16 years as executive secretary in the Missions department, working for three different directors—Bishop Jerry Datema (until 1993), Kyle McQuillen (1993-2001), and Gary Dilley (2001-2003). For a time, prior to the arrival of Donna Hollopeter, she was also interim director of the Women’s Missionary Fellowship.

In June 2003, Mabel switched to a different role, as accounting clerk. In that role, she worked with Finance director Marci Hammel until 2014, when Mabel finally retired at age 74.

Mabel possessed a variety of skills which made her a superb administrative assistant—detail oriented, organized, great relational skills, a servant spirit, and really smart. She was also highly dedicated, one of those employees who goes far beyond the job description and sometimes had to be told to go home. Point of interest: on the side, Mabel was part of a clown ministry.
