Harry Iunghuhn Obituary

Harry Dean Iunghuhn

89, of Princeton, passed away on Saturday, August 26, 2017 in hospice care at Gibson General Hospital in Princeton. He was born in Cuba, IL to Harry and Nellie Iunghuhn. He graduated from Cuba High School and enlisted in the U.S. Navy from 1946-1948. After service, he attended Indiana Central College.

Dean met and married his wife of 67 years, Darlene at college. They raised four children; Mark (Terry) of Princeton, Matt (Paula) of Brookston, IN, Kathy Allen (Jim) of Elkhart, IN and DeAnne Fay (Pete) of Brownsburg, IN. They have ten grandchildren and four great grandchildren.

He was preceded in death by his parents; four brothers; and three sisters.

Harry retired, after 39 years, as Fire Co. Underwriting Supt. for State Farm Insurance Company. The family was one of the initial families to establish the corporate office at West Lafayette. Dean loved woodworking, history, traveling and golf. He was especially proud of his small town background and that his children all graduated from Purdue University.

Harry was truly a loving husband, father and grandfather.

I have such fond memories of Harry. We worked together in Fire Underwriting starting in 1971. I am retired now but worked for State Farm for 42 1/2 years. He was wonderful to work with and be around. Always made me laugh. I still have his famous "Cranberry Bread" recipe. Every Christmas it has become my tradition to bake this delicious bread. I give as gifts and we enjoy it so much and I always think of Harry.
