A Celebration of Life Service will be held for Rena Stackhouse on September 25th, 11:00 am at the First Methodist Church in Indianola.

She was a member of the Rebekah Lodge in Lacona and worked at the Indianola McDonalds for 25 years, where she made many friends and enjoyed getting to know her customers. Garage sales, auctions, reading, arranging flowers, and crafts were some of the things she enjoyed doing. Of course, spending time with family was her most favorite thing.

Memorials in her name may be made to Ronald McDonald House or Kavanagh Hospice House.
