Madge Elaine "Peg" Shock, age 88, of Celina, passed away Wednesday, December 6, 2017 at Van Wert County Hospital.
Born on January 12, 1929 in Blackcreek Township, Mercer County, she was the youngest child of the late Ralph A. & Ivadel (Dudgeon) Shock. Peg was raised on a Guernsey dairy farm near Rockford, where she resided until moving to Celina in 2011.
She is survived by two nieces & a nephew: Teala Hellwarth of Fort Wayne, IN, Susan (Hellwarth) & Dan Miller of Delaware, OH, and John S. & Mary Jo Hellwarth of Celina, and four great nieces & nephews: Dr. Kristen Hellwarth, DVM of Garfield, NJ, Robin (Miller) & Kyle Thrush of Marion, OH, Jordan Hellwarth of Celina, and Kent & Ashley (Elam) Miller of Columbus.
Preceding her in death were a brother & sister-in-law, Max & Dorothy Shock, two sisters & brothers-in-law, Martha Jane & John F. Hellwarth and Ruthana "Annie" & Charles Hughes, and a Brother-in-law, Clifford Regedanz.
A 1947 graduate of Rockford High School, Peg went on to study at International College in Fort Wayne, and began her working career at the Mercer County Department of Public Welfare.
