Beulah Louise Case, 86, of Copeland Oaks, formerly of Damascus and
Frazeysburg, completed her earthly journey at Crandall Medical Center, in
Sebring, Ohio at 6:15 p.m. on May 21, 2024.
She was born at the family home in Shannon Heights, near Frazeysburg, on June
11, 1937, the firstborn daughter of the late Emerson and Mary E. (Frazier) Dunfee.
She was a 1955 graduate of Frazeysburg High School and a 1959 graduate of
Muskingum College. She taught junior high home economics for several years at
Tri-Valley Schools.
She was married, on June 14, 1969 at Nashport United Methodist Church, to
Ernest L. Case, Jr., and they were married until his death on February 24, 1996.
She is survived by sons, Charles (Christine), of McClure, and David (Beth), of
Shreve, and grandchildren Lauralie, Emily, Colin, Nathan, and Sarah. She is also
survived by her brother Paul Dunfee of Frazeysburg, and Marilyn (Pat) Scott, of
Phoenix, AZ. Also surviving are her granddogs Teddy and Willow.
One of her greatest joys was loving on her numerous neices, nephews, cousins,
neighbors, lifelong friends and church family friends. She did so by keeping
meticulous record of birthdays and special days, and sending cards, letters, and
pictures on days of celebration. Testifying to this is her collection of cards and
correspondences that she leaves behind.
Louise's pride and joy was her family,who she dedicated her life to. She found joy
in preparing delicious meals, making and mending clothes for the family, and
helping with homework and studies during school years. She won Best of Show at
the Canfield Fair for her homemade bread, and her cinnamon rolls and dinner rolls
were like no other. Her flower bed of tulips and impatiens were an annual show
stopper on Floral Drive in Damascus.
She was a 50 year member of Damascus United Methodist Church, and served as a
Sunday school teacher for several years. She will always be remembered by her
sons for her commitment to nurturing them in the faith by attending Sunday school
& worship weekly and sharing in church leadership and service. She served with
the Caring Friends outreach throughout her years of residing at Copeland Oaks.
In addition to her parents and husband, she was preceded in death by her sister
Jean Duncan, brother Emerson Roy Dunfee, brother-in-law Bill Duncan,
sister-in-law Marcie Dunfee, and a neice, Tricia White.
A funeral service will be held Tuesday, May 28, 2024 at 11:00 AM at Damascus Methodist
Church with Jon Long officiating. Family and friends may call the hour prior to
the funeral from 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM. Burial will follow in Damascus Cemetery.
Her family wishes to thank all the care giving team members at Copeland Oaks
