Myrleen B. Kline, 95, of Ephrata, passed away peacefully on Sunday, September 28, 2025, at Ephrata Manor.

Born in Hopeland to the late Ralph and Ella Mae (Hensel) Bingeman, she was the wife of the late Stanley E. "Skip" Kline, who passed away in 2013.

Myrleen was a proud 1948 graduate of Ephrata High School and a lifelong member of Hopeland Church in Lititz, where she taught Sunday school and sang in the choir. She was also active in the Order of the Eastern Star, Chapter 407. Over the years, she worked at RCA, the Dutchman Feed Mill in Mount Airy, and later Horst Auction Center, where she especially enjoyed working alongside her grandchildren.

Known for her kindness, faith and dedication to family, Myrleen loved hosting Sunday dinners and spending time with her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. She will be remembered for her caring heart and her deep love of family and community.

She is survived by four children: Richard S. Kline, companion of Ann Tribioli of Lititz; Rhonda S. Pike, wife of Gary Pike of Ephrata; Roger S. Kline, husband of Lynne (Grill) Kline of Ephrata; and Renee S. Horst, wife of Tim Horst of Lititz. She was blessed with seven grandchildren - LTC Michelle Kline, Ph.D., Chivonne Weaver, Brandon Pike, Laura Kline, Brent Horst, Matt Horst and Derek Horst - and eleven great-grandchildren.

A memorial service will be held at 2:00 PM on Sunday, October 12, 2025, at Hopeland Church, 295 North Clay Road, Lititz, with Rev. Paul Miller officiating. The family will receive friends 30 minutes prior to the service. Interment will be private.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made in Myrleen's memory to Hopeland Church, 295 North Clay Road, Lititz, PA 17543.
