MABEL M. CHADWICK – Obituary
Mabel M.Chadwick (nee Trautz), age 92, of Williamstown went home to be with the Lord on November 9, 2018. Mabel was born on October 16, 1926 in Philadelphia, PA to Harold and Mabel Trautz. She married her beloved husband, Leon, 73 years ago in Elkton, MD on December 11, 1944. A breast cancer survivor, and a woman of constant faith, dignity and integrity, she never failed to do what she could to help others. Mabel’s greatest joys were cooking, baking biscuits, sewing and singing in the church choir. Her greatest attribute was the unwavering support she gave her husband during his sales career. She was a Sunday School teacher at Emmanuel Reformed Episcopal Church in Philadelphia and volunteered for Cancer Group making dressings. Rev. John Koch was instrumental in leading Mabel to become baptized in the Methodist faith in Williamstown.
