Rilla Fern (Church) Enterline was born October 13, 1930. She was called Home January 07, 2015.
Fern, the daughter of Edgar and Twila (Wolverton) Church, was born in rural Derby, Iowa. She attended school at Cambria and Derby before attending and graduating from AIB with a degree in business.
Fern married her husband, Boyd Saylor Enterline December 6, 1957, at the Lucas Assembly of God Church. To this union two sons were born: Edgar Eugene and Todd Alan.
Fern traveled all over the country performing Bible School Programs that included chalk talks, object lessons, and “Rusty Doolittle”. She later pastored for many years at the Lucas Assembly of God church, until she retired in 1994. She and Boyd then attended different churches before settling at Center Community Church in Russell, Iowa, where Fern came out of retirement and pastored until the church closed in November of 2014. She was incredibly proud of the fact that she got to dedicate all six of her grandchildren to the Lord, and also performed three of the grandchildren’s wedding ceremonies.
Fern will be remembered for many things. Among them, her love of her six grandchildren and their spouses, her great-granddaughter, her ventriloquism, her quirky ways, and of course none could forget her experimental cooking. Some of the best memories of her are her “do a dumb thing days”, her advice and her stories.
Fern was preceded in death by her husband, Boyd Saylor Enterline; her parents Edgar and Twila Church; brothers Edgar Church Jr. and John Franklin Church; and sister Betty Jo Church.
Fern will be remembered by her family, sons Edgar and wife, Rhonda Enterline, and Todd and wife, Mary Enterline, all of Chariton; grandchildren Rilla Enterline of West Des Moines, Kenny Enterline and wife, Shelby, of Lucas, Joshua Enterline, Tony Enterline and Robin Enterline, all of Chariton, Cody and wife, Tasha Enterline, of Derby; great-granddaughter Alivia Enterline; brother Larry and wife, Barbara Church, of Des Moines; nieces and nephews, extended family and a host of friends.
