Melinda Sue Wahl, at age 79, departed her earthly home on March 15, 2021 at St. Vincent Hospital with family at her side. She was born in New Castle, IN on May 31, 1941 to her parents William M. and Mary E. (Moody) Caldwell, who have preceded her in death.
She is survived by her husband of 59 years, Robert A. Wahl, whom she married on April 8, 1961 and were planning on celebrating their 60th Anniversary on Sanibel Island, Florida, where they vacationed nearly yearly. Their extended family was planning on joining them for a group celebration.
The extended family, who she loved beyond belief – and all named Wahl are: Sons: Robert Scott (Carolyn Kerkhof) -Cicero, IN, Brian Christopher (Melanie Wells) -Zionsville, IN, and Bradley Alexander (Kate Crawford) – Riverside, IL. Grandchildren: Scotts’- Andrew (Lauren Bailey), Alex, Max, and Sam. Brians'-Luke, Blake, and Nick. Brads’- Connor, Erin, and Brady; great-grandson: Andrew and Lauréns – Christian Scott. She is also survived by a brother, George Caldwell (Susan Long) from New Castle, IN. In addition, she has countless nieces, nephews, cousins, in-laws, and extended family members.
She was a 1959 Graduate of Walter P. Chrysler High School in New Castle, attended Butler University and was a licensed Cosmetologist. She retired from Eli Lilly and Company in 2001 after working in their Elizabeth Arden Salon and their Marketing Department. She was an accomplished pianist and a fantastic self-taught watercolor artist. She created a painting each year that was used for their Christmas card, and many copies are on display each year in many homes of family and friends. She was a devoted wife, a fantastic mother, and a loving grandmother and great-grandmother – her family was the most important thing in her life. She has an unbelievable number of close friends – many that she had known for over 70 years.
