On Monday, Sept. 15, 2025, Mabel Darlene Schillerstrom, 80, of Mount Pleasant painlessly and peacefully left this Earth to be with her Lord and reunited with her loved ones in Heaven.
Mabel will be most easily remembered as a Hawkeye fan, with family stating her blood ran black and gold.
She was most passionate about working in her flower beds and loved sitting outside watching her birds. Mabel was a very proud American Patriot; she loved her President and her country.
Her most favorite times were spent with family: her children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and her precious Aunt Margaret.
Mabel was adamant about making the best memories for her family. She would decorate and cook meticulously for the holidays, making sure every detail was absolute perfection.
Mabel was preceded in death by many loved ones and is survived by numerous others, as well as friends and others whose lives were blessed by her presence. Her love and legacy will be carried out in the ways that she wished most: faith, family, and love.
Mabel was strong in her wish for no funeral service or celebration of life. She felt as though family should be celebrated and remembered each and every day.
Her final resting place will be in Evergreen Cemetery, Fairfield.
Memorials can be made in Mabel's name to a College Trust set up for her great-grandchildren, Isabella and Talan Traman, or to the University of Iowa Children's Hospitals.
Memorials may be sent to Prugh Funeral Service at 3940 Division Street in Burlington, Iowa 52601.
Prugh Funeral Service is in care of the arrangements.
