Maggie Koehn Unruh went to her eternal home on August 5, 2004 at her 
home in Ashland, Oregon. She was 95 years old. She had been in 
failing health for several years.

Maggie was the first of nine children born to Jonas and Amanda 
(Schmidt) Koehn in Chickasha, Oklahoma, on July 31, 1909. On July 8, 
1933 Maggie married Clyde J. Unruh and they built a home outside of 
Verden, Oklahoma. Three children completed this family, Don, Phyllis 
and Barbara. In February of 1952 the family moved to Malin, Oregon.

Clyde went home to be with the Lord in March of 1987 and shortly 
afterwards Maggie moved to Ashland. Because of failing health, 
Barbara moved in with her and cared for her mother until her death.

Maggie is survived by her son Don and his wife Ruth of Malin, Oregon; 

daughters Phyllis and husband Don Krueger of Yelm, Washington, and 
Barbara of Ashland, Oregon; eight grandchildren, Karen Rassmussen of 
Portland, OR, David Unruh of Medford, OR, Steve Unruh of Malin, OR, 
Paul Unruh of Abilene, TX, Julia Unruh of Malin, OR, Brent Krueger of 
Washington, D.C., Nathan Krueger of Palm Beach, FL, and Shauna 
Baalman of Everett, WA; six great-grandchildren, Daniel and Eric 
Rassmussen, Jacquelyn and Shelby Unruh, Briauna and Grace Baalman; 
sisters Della Jantz of Foley, AL, and Maureen Base of Anadarko, OK; 
brothers Claude and Vernon Koehn of Galva, KA. Maggie was preceded in 
death by her husband Clyde, a granddaughter Kalani, her parents Jonas 
and Amanda Koehn, brothers Leo and Melvin Koehn and sisters Lenora 
Koehn and Lydia Andress.

Funeral services will be at the First Baptist Church in Verden, 
Oklahoma with burial in the Plainview Mennonite Cemetery of Verden.
