Cathy D. (Condry) Fuehring

Cathy D. Fuehring of Tipton (East Hobbs) passed away on Thursday Evening, March 21st, 2024, in Indianapolis, Indiana. At the time of her passing, her husband and two youngest sons were at her bedside and escorted her into eternity with many families and friends just around the corner in support. Waiting for her in Heaven was a beloved sister, Granddaughter Kelsy, her healed daughter, parents, loved ones, and many more. 

Cathy was born March 2nd, 1959, in Noblesville, Indiana, as Cathy Darlene Condry to Calvin Condry and Avalene P. (Mace) Mossburg. Robert Mossburg married Avalene a few years later and became father to Cathy, along with a total of eight other children.

She was raised in Sheridan, Indiana, and learned many things from her parents, siblings, grandparents, and other relatives, such as gardening, canning, hunting, skinning, and building a new home with her father. Many critters, horses, and other four-legged animals were a big part of her early years.

After graduating from Sheridan High School in 1977, Cathy married Robert Rush, had three children (Autumn, Brock, & Dusty), and settled in Atlanta, Indiana, until their marriage was dissolved. Cathy married W. Roger Fuehring on September 9th, 1995, and became a mother to his son (Zachery). The Fuehring household became a blended family of six, with an additional niece (Crystal) and many other kids and critters throughout the years.

Cathy was a member of White Rock Fellowship Church in Noblesville, Indiana, Mad River & Nickel Plate Railroad Museum in Bellevue, Ohio, and Railroad Passenger Car Alliance. She was a former member of Elevation Church in Scottsburg, Indiana, before moving back to Tipton County.  Cathy volunteered for ten years as a firefighter and EMT in Atlanta, Indiana, and at Jackson Township in Arcadia, Indiana.

Cathy was inspirational to many young girls and battered women, and she logistically supported them behind the scenes as she guided them out of desperate situations. No less than three children were rescued from pregnancy termination with Cathy’s mentoring and assistance with finding forever homes through adoption. On several occasions, Cathy placed herself in harm’s by working to get abused women and children away from their abusers.  

Cathy was the principal visionary of an annual youth ministry camping event that continued for 19 years under her financial support and logistical help under the ministries of White Rock Fellowship and Elevation Church.  She also worked closely with her husband on concert ministries with White Rock Fellowship, which included working with talents such as Sanctus Real, Sonic Flood, and Ruth Graham, the daughter of Billy and Ruth Graham.

Cathy was co-owner of F & M Car & Locomotive Repair Inc., which ceased service operations in October of 2014 for her husband to take a management job with a railroad. Also, Cathy could dedicate more time to her daughter (Autumn), whose health was deteriorating. Cathy was still the matriarch of the company’s private rail car, the “Goderich,” which has been utilized in Indiana since 2010 for special events, including the state of Indiana Bicentennial Torch Relay through two counties. More importantly, her family’s annual Christmas sleepover is held in the car with her grandchildren each New Year’s Eve.

Cathy enjoyed traveling with her husband, gardening, and working with her dog JoJo and mini horse, “Little Bit.”

Cathy is survived by her husband, W. Roger Fuehring; son, Brock (Megan) Adam Rush, E. Dustin Rush, and Zachery (Lauren) Taylor Fuehring; brothers, Calvin D. (Beverly) Condry, David L. (Janet) Condry, Robert D. (Loretta) Mossburg, and Donald L. (Ellen) Mossburg; sisters, Jan D. (Fred) Bell and Denise A. (Kevin) Morgan. She is also survived by six grandchildren and several nieces, nephews, and other family members.

Cathy was preceded in passing by her sister, Robin Baker; brother, Gary (Chrissy) D. Condry; daughter, Autumn L. Rush; granddaughter, Kelsy; and parents, Avalene and Robert Mossberg.

She also enjoyed being creative with art, restoring historical items, and ministering, teaching, and mentoring her children, daughters-in-law, and grandchildren. She inspired her husband daily as he desired to serve her with each breath.

The funeral service will be at 1:00 pm Monday, April 1, 2024, at White Rock Fellowship, 21070 Schulley Road, Noblesville, Indiana with Pastor Andy Waite officiating. Burial will follow in Arcadia Brethren Cemetery, 8989 E 266th Street, Arcadia, IN.
