Esther Ruth (Felgar) Jingst

Esther Ruth Jingst, 93, returned to our Heavenly Father on Sunday, May 15, 2022, at Maranatha Manor in Sebring, Florida.

Esther was born October 10, 1928, to Frank F. Felgar and Alma Ruth (Neill) Felgar in Bowen, Illinois.  She was the foundation of a family of 4 children frequently moving to accompany Truman’s ministries.  During the 62 blessed years of marriage to Truman, she led her household and supported the goals of her husband and children. Esther committed her life to God at an early age and lived every day to advance his word in her actions.  She devoted her life to her husband, children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren. Her selflessness and dedication while exhibiting calm and harmony, will be missed by all who knew of her kindness. 

She is preceded in death by her husband Truman and survived by her children Douglas & Mary Ann Jingst, Dennis & Kathy Jingst, Diane Noder, and Darrel & Lori Jingst, 12 grandchildren, and 25 great-grandchildren. Esther’s family would like to thank the staff and volunteers at Maranatha Manor for their love, kindness, and care.

Visitation will be held from 10:00 am until 12 pm on Tuesday, May 24, 2022, at Salem Bible Church in Sutter, Illinois.  Funeral services will be held on Tuesday at 12:00 pm, with burial to follow at the church cemetery.

Memorials may be directed to Maranatha Manor, 54 Maranatha Blvd, Sebring, FL 33870.
