							Obituary 
							 
							Leota Louise Lamar, 86, passed away Sunday, 
							September 3, 2017 at the Vonderlieth Living Center, 
							where she had resided for the past four years. 
							 
							Leota leaves behind her Son, Gary Lamar, and his 
							wife, Jana, of Decatur, her daughter, Shirley Lamar 
							of Brazil, IN; four grandchildren: David Hughes 
							(Stephanie) Brazil, IN; Deanna Clark of Terre Haute, 
							IN; Darcy (Kel) Szajko, and Lindsey (Kaleb) Swarts, 
							all of Decatur, ten great-grandchildren; her sister, 
							Lois Byrne of Chestnut, and many nieces and nephews. 
							 
							She was preceded in death by her husband Hatcil 
							(Buss) Lamar; parents, Boyd Hahn and Clara Hahn; 
							three brothers: Boyd Jr., Herschel, and Harry; and 
							two sisters: Helena Teichmann and Doris Koehler 
							Faith. 
							 
							Raised in Mount Pulaski all her life she married 
							Hatcil Lamar, on April 14, 1951 in Lincoln. They had 
							celebrated 65 years of marriage before Buss passed 
							away on August 19, 2016.  | 
							
							 
                    
					  
							Leota loved to be with people and could strike up a 
							conversation with anyone. She enjoyed hummingbirds 
							and her flowers, but those paled in comparison to 
							her love for her family, whom were her pride and 
							joy. Leota was a lifelong member of Mount Pulaski 
							Christian Church. 
							 
							At her request, cremation is to be handled by 
							Fricke-Calvert-Schrader Funeral Home with a private, 
							family graveside service to follow at a later date.
