August 15, 1933 - June 01, 2022

Emma B. Stick, 88, formerly of Reynolds Avenue, Lancaster, passed away at The Mennonite Home on Wednesday, June 1, 2022. She was born in Lebanon, daughter of the late Clayton Samuel and Minnie Mae (Wolfe) Stick.

She worked for the Kiddie Shop at the Lancaster Shopping Center and then at Park City. Emma then worked in housekeeping at Lancaster General Hospital before becoming a transporter for the Cardiology Department at the hospital. Emma thoroughly enjoyed transporting patients.

Some of Emma’s favorite events were family vacations on the houseboat at Raystown Lake, family reunions, eating steamed crabs in her backyard, and Red Lobster’s coconut shrimp. She dearly loved her granddaughters and great-grandchildren, her nieces and nephews, and her dogs.

Surviving Emma are her two sons, Jeffrey N. Donough, husband of Dawn of Lititz, and Gregory L. Donough, husband of Sylvia of Conestoga; three granddaughters, Brandi, wife of Kemp Rager, Jr., Dori, wife of Mark Owczarzak, and Sarah, wife of Andy Zellers; and five great-grandchildren, Kemp Rager, III, Brianna Rager, Carter Campbell, Allison Campbell, and Archer Zellers.

In addition to her parents, Emma was preceded in death by her infant son, N. Burton Donough Jr; her older siblings, John, Monroe, Arlene, Earl, Helen, Claude, Harvey, and Jeannette; and her companion John F. Huber.

Emma’s family extends their heartfelt thank you to the staff of Jackson Run at The Mennonite Home.

Private interment will be in Kochenderfer’s Cemetery, Lebanon.

Kindly consider a memorial contribution to The Mennonite Home Communities’ Benevolent Care Program, The Mennonite Home, 2001 Harrisburg Pike, Lancaster, PA 17601.
