    Notes 
    • Frostburg, MD- Delores Mae Stottlemyer, 86, went home to be with the Lord on Saturday, December 5, 2015 at Frostburg Village Nursing Home. She was born December 15, 1928 to the late Pete and Edna Morris. She was also preceded in death by her loving husband, Rev. Michael Oliver Stottlemyer; her baby, Roger Stottlemyer; two sisters Anna Taylor; and Shirley Plummer; two brothers Richard Morris and wife Marlene; and James Morris and wife Audrey; and one son-in-law Arlie Lease. This amazing woman was one of seven siblings and gave birth to 10 children, losing the first shortly after birth. Her husband passed away when the youngest of the nine was only around seven years old. Says her grandson Greg, Jr., “I have trouble keeping up with three and cannot fathom this responsibility”. Those nine children Penny Lease; Vernon Stottlemyer and wife Lorna; Danny Stottlemyer; David Stottlemyer and wife Jean; Tom Stottlemyer and wife Luann; Debra Poland and husband Greg; Michael Stottlemyer and wife Rose; John Stottlemyer and wife Deborah; and James Stottlemyer and wife Terri; went on to provide her with 20 grandchildren, 31 great grandchildren, six great great grandchildren, and 11 step grandchildren for a total of 73 (and growing). She is also survived by one brother Rev. Francis Morris and wife Shirley; one sister Mary Plummer; and two brother-in-laws Charles Taylor and Dick Plummer. This does not include all of the children's friends, friends of friends and people in the community to who she was Mom or Grandma. Along with her husband, she founded the Potomac Valley Revival Center in Rawlings, MD, which has been a consistent staple of the community for over 50 years. She ministered there many times especially after her husband passed. Virtually every single one of those "73" (old enough to talk) can tell stories of growing up in that church. While she wouldn't want to be put in the spotlight for it, that church has helped rescue and save the lives of more people than she ever knew. Says her grandson Greg, Jr. “What I do know is that as far back as I can remember, every time I walked in that church, I could count on seeing her sitting about five rows back, in the aisle, on the left side of that church.” Her strength shown throughout the years is only matched by her love of the Lord. Many may have known her as the persistent/reliable candy lady that was always at the mall selling peanut butter candy to raise money for the church. Most will remember the person who they could call 24/7, no matter what the reason, so that she could pray with/for you to the point that even though she was on the other end of the phone, it felt like she was in the room with you putting her hand on your shoulder saying it was going to be alright, and you believed it because she said so. Greg,Jr. says that “Today, Grandma went home to be with Pap. My favorite last memory was just last week getting back to town in time to introduce her to my Drew (#72). Not only will she be missed by her family, but there is a whole community that has lost a pillar.” We love you and will miss you! See you again soon.
