Miriam Addington

Miriam Judith Addington, 87, of Fort Wayne, passed away on October 7, 2026, at Parkview Regional Medical Center in Fort Wayne, IN.

Born in Chicago, IL, on June 27, 1939, Miriam was the beloved daughter of the late Chet R. and Ada M. (Larson) Addington.

Miriam was a devoted member of Lake Chapel United Methodist Church and an avid reader who found joy in the written word. She earned her Bachelor of Arts degree from Barry College in Miami, FL, in 1977 and went on to pursue her passion for nursing at Nevada College that same year. In 1979, she received her LPN degree from North Carolina College and dedicated many years to caring for others as a compassionate nurse.

Miriam's legacy lives on through her loving family: her daughter, Celeste (Ron) Levy, and her son, Gerald Stronge; her cherished grandchildren, Kattie (Shane) Bradfield, Amethyst (Jay) Snyder, and Devlyn (Robin) Larkey; and her adored great-grandchildren, Jaiden Bradfield, Nicholas Brad, Nevaeh Rosa, and Xander Snider.

She was preceded in death by her brothers, David and Dan Addington, and her sisters, Martha Waltman and Ruth Smith, who welcomed her into eternal rest.
