Roma Anglemyer Obituary

Roma Kathleen Anglemyer, 93, of Wakarusa, Indiana, passed away peacefully surrounded by her family on Sunday afternoon, Nov. 16, 2025, at Hubbard Hill Estates in Elkhart, Indiana.

Roma was born on Sept. 17, 1932, in Wakarusa, to Wayne Douglas and Evelyn Virginia (Weldy) Wyman. She was a Madison High School graduate, received her B.S. in Education from Goshen College and her Master's in Administration in Special Education from St. Mary's College. On June 10, 1956, Roma married Keith A. Anglemyer at the Oak Grove Missionary Church. He preceded her in death on Oct. 15, 2020.

Roma was a proud educator and taught in the Bremen, Concord and Wa-Nee school systems. She was proud to work in Wakarusa and retired in 1993 from Wa-Nee Community Schools. Roma was distinguished as a teacher and received various accolades throughout her career. She was named to the Who's Who Among America's Teachers based on a nomination from a former student whom she impacted in the classroom. She was recognized by the Indiana Department of Education for excellence in gifted/talented education. She taught enrichment classes both for the public schools she served in as well as for Kids on Campus at Goshen College. Roma was conferred the Key of Pi Lambda Teta-National Honor and Professional Association of Northern Indiana, where she served as president from 1987-1989. She was a member of the Indiana State Teachers Association, National Education Association, Progressive Homemakers, and Searchlight Club. Roma was also a licensed real estate salesperson.

Roma was a member of the Wakarusa Missionary Church where she served in various ministries. She strongly supported 4-H over the years and loved to travel. She traveled to all 50 United States and to 19 other countries, including seven of the provinces of Canada.

Roma was a loving wife, mother, and grandmother. She is survived by two daughters: Debra (Boyd "Mac") McNally of Wakarusa and Linda (Kirk) Stolley of Wakarusa; three grandchildren, Justin (Caitlin) McNally, Danielle Stolley, and Amber (Matt) Mower; and three great-grandchildren, Maddison, Maxine and Margaux McNally. She was preceded in death by her parents and her husband, Keith Anglemyer.

I had the privilege of having Mrs.Anglemyer as my elementary school teacher I actually had the privilege of having her two years in a row because she had went from teaching one grade and bounced up to the next grade and I had her two years in a row. I really loved the time that I was in her class. She was one of my favorite teachers. Your parents were part of our small church class until they were unable to attend due to health. She had a round full laugh that always made me smile!

Keith and Roma were our next door neighbors as I was growing up. They were both the neighbors that everyone wishes they have. They were always kind and would converse when I would see them outside. Good, kind people. May you rest in God's hands. May God bring comfort and peace to the family.
