Begravd på Washington Park East Cemetery, Indianapolis, Marion County, Indiana, USA Jean Louise Habig Urshan, 85, of Indianapolis passed away Tuesday, May 8, 2007, at 1:45 p.m. after being involved in a motor vehicle accident in December 2006. Jean was born July 21, 1921, in Indianapolis to Andrew and Hattie Gakstetter Habig, and throughout her life she loved and stayed close to both the Habig and Gakstetter sides of her family. The very gentle and backward country girl traveled to New York City with her pastor, Raymond Hoekstra, in 1938 and there met the handsome Nathaniel A. Urshan, son of a prominent New York pastor. Nathaniel and Jean were married in October 1941. The marriage of the Urshans launched a ministerial career of speaking and singing that included the pastorate of the 2500-member Calvary Tabernacle in Indianapolis from 1949 to 1979, the leadership post of the 4 million-member United Pentecostal Church International from 1977 to 2002 as well as hundreds of conferences, camp meetings and special church events around the world. The unpretentious girl who attended the Arthur Jordan School of Music in Indianapolis and the Apostolic Bible Institute in St. Paul, Minn., and played the piano at the little, backward church in Brown County, Ind., never dreamed that their music on CDs, tapes, records and in live performances would impact an entire generation of listeners and beyond. Her admirers included Oral and Evelyn Roberts, Bill and Gloria Gaither, Tom Trask, general superintendant of the Assemblies of God, and millions of others who tuned in to the Harvestime International Broadcast between 1961 and 2003. Jean has now stepped across the great divide. The family extends a special thanks to Triumph Hospital and the staff for the tender loving care they provided for Jean. She was preceded in death by her loving husband of 63 years, the Rev. Nathaniel A. Urshan; a precious daughter, Sharon Sue McKellar; a sister, Elizabeth French; and a brother, William Habig. Blessed with an amazing genteel nature, she leaves behind survivors including a daughter, two sons, 13 grandchildren; and 25 great-grandchildren. | |
