She was the mom of our Westminster High School class of 1971 classmate, Dana Gonder. Our heart, prayers, and hugs go out to Dana, and his family.

Ollyne Gonder, 92, of Taneytown, MD, died peacefully on Saturday, January 21, 2017 at her home. Born July 2, 1924 in Taneytown, she was the daughter of the late Luther and Bessie (Reinamin) Eckard. She was the wife of Elmer William “Bill” Gonder, to whom she was married for nearly 75 years.

Ollyne was a seamstress.  She was employed over the years by Joe Caparolla Clothing Company in Union Bridge, H.L. Hartz and Son in Frederick, and English American Clothiers in Westminster.  She was a member of Bethel Assembly of God in Littlestown, PA for more than 40 years.  She enjoyed baking, quilting, collecting cancelled stamps for mission projects, assembling note pads for use in Bibles and collecting red Fenton glassware and angel figurines.  In her younger years, Ollyne enjoyed watching dirt track races.  Most of all, she loved spending time with her family and friends.

Surviving, in addition to her husband, are sons, Dana Gonder and wife Trisha of Phoenix, AZ, and Larry Gonder and wife Brenda of Thurmont, MD; grandchildren, Brian Ebaugh of York, PA, Laura Rigsby of Frederick, MD, Rebecca Gonder of Thurmont, MD, and Abigail Holzer and Tristen Gonder of Phoenix, AZ; great-grandson, Austin Rigsby; and many nieces and nephews.  She was predeceased by sisters, Helen Walker, Flossie Fogle, and Grace Ehrman; and brothers, Donald, William, and Raymond Eckard. 

A funeral service will be held at 11 a.m. on Friday, January 27, 2017 at Bethel Assembly of God, 1125 Frederick Pike, Littlestown, PA, with the Rev. Garry Sheaffer officiating.  Burial will follow at Grace United Church of Christ Cemetery in Taneytown.  The family will receive friends 6-8 p.m. on Thursday at MYERS-DURBORAW FUNERAL HOME, 136 E. Baltimore St., Taneytown, MD.
