She was born in Washington Township, Indiana, on Tuesday, December 1, 1931, to Walter and Mary (Bradford) Howard. On August 5, 1948, she married John Edmond Chaplin, who preceded her in death.\r\n\r\nRuth worked as a billing specialist for 30 years with The Wesleyan Church Headquarters. She was a dedicated member of Sweetser Wesleyan Church, where she served as the song leader (She loved to sing!), leader of the YMWB, Sunday School teacher, and Secretary-Treasurer.

Although Ruth lived a long and full life, it will still be hard for the family she leaves behind; she was well-loved.\r\n\r\nSurvivors include her sons, John (late Connie Sue) Chaplin, Jr., of Marion and Charles H. (Kim Brewer) Chaplin of Marion; daughter, Vera E. (Barry) Carstensen of Greentown; several grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and great-great-grandchildren; and many nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.\r\n\r\nShe was also preceded in death by her parents and nine siblings.\r\n\r\nThe family will receive visitors from 10:00 am to 12:00 noon on Wednesday, February 26, 2025, at Needham-Storey-Wampner Funeral &amp; Cremation Service, North Chapel, 1341 N. Baldwin Ave., Marion, IN.\r\n\r\nImmediately following the time of visitation, a service to celebrate Ruth's life will begin at 12:00 noon with Pastor David Parker officiating. \u00a0Burial will take place at Gardens of Memory in Marion.\r\n\r\nMemorial contributions may be directed to Sweetser Wesleyan Church, 200 W. Delphi Rd., Sweetser, IN 46987.\r\n\r\nMemories may be shared online at www.nswcares.com.\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<div>\r\n<div class=\"obituary-description__store\">To send flowers to the family of Ruth, please\u00a0<a class=\"obituary-description__store--link\" href=\"https:\/\/needhamstoreywampner-north-chapel.tributestore.com\/?oId=37714452&amp;tag=&amp;source=tco_description&amp;_cdx=GA1.1.1050496179.1738002651:GS1.1.1740429553.12.1.1740429809.58.0.0&amp;tcouuid=497c3018-86e5-4f51-9835-28261f9f9e0c&amp;mtph=1\" rel=\"noopener\">visit our floral store.<\/a><\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script  src=\"https:\/\/\/pagead\/js\/.js?client=0531879237494766\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"\"\r\n     style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\"\r\n     data-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"0531879237494766\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"2870348528\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     ( = window. || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\r\n \r\n<script  src=\"https:\/\/\/pagead\/js\/?client=0531879237494766\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\"\r\n     data-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"0531879237494766\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"2870348528\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     ().push({});\r\n<\/script>\r\n ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ruth Anna Chaplin, 93, of Marion, passed away at 7:10 am on Friday, February 21, 2025, at Marion Health.
