Laura “Jane” Trotter Rullman died on Saturday, December 3, 2011, at Good Samaritan Hospital in Cincinnati, Ohio. Jane was born on September 18, 1922, in Maryville, Tenn. She was a graduate of Maryville High School, and attended Maryville College for 2½ years. She then was selected to train at Purdue for a year in aeronautical engineering, followed by a year of work as a Curtiss-Wright Cadette in Columbus, Ohio, a three-year program during WWII, which trained women from around the country who excelled in math and science, to fill engineering jobs to help with the production of thousands of planes under government contract, enabling men to serve their country overseas and to help keep the war from dragging on. Jane returned to Maryville College, where she graduated cum laude with a bachelor’s degree in English in 1946. She was employed by the University of Tennessee Library, during which she was asked to set up the Oak Ridge Institute of Nuclear Studies’ Library in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, for the Atomic Energy Commission. Jane went on to Columbia University in New York City, where she received her master’s degree in library science. After obtaining her graduate degree, she went to work as a cataloger at The Purdue University Library in West Lafayette, Ind., where she met Louis Rullman, who was just completing his master’s degree in mechanical engineering. They married, and shared 51 wonderful years in the College Hill Community of Cincinnati, Ohio, until his death in August of 2004. Jane was the daughter of the late Tennessee State Senator John Thaddeus and Ollie Lee Matthews Trotter of Maryville. She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Louis Schockel Rullman of Aurora, Ind.; brothers, Hugh (Naomi) Trotter and Earl (Emma) Trotter of Maryville; and sisters, Ona (Ben) Ray of Newport, Tenn., Jonnie (Henry) Robinson of Shandon, Ohio, Louise (Comer) Johnson, Mary (Victor) Davies, and Margaret (Kenneth) Abbott of Maryville, and Helen (William) Miller of Athens, Tenn. She is survived by sister, Barbara Trotter Engel of Hamilton, Ohio; three children, Laura Jane (Steven) Dowers of Hamilton, Ohio, Megan Lou Rullman Ball of Atlanta, Georgia, and Thaddeus Christian (Lynn) Rullman of Cincinnati, Ohio. She leaves behind grandchildren, Adam (Maria) Dowers of Asheville, N.C., Bethany Dowers (Chris) Martin of Signal Mountain, Tenn., Tyler Trotter Ball of Atlanta, Ga., Weston and Jordan Rullman of Cincinnati, Ohio, Zachary Laurie of Philadelphia, Pa., and great-grandchildren, Abigail, Melanie Jane, and Kimberly Dowers of Asheville, N.C., and Olivia Laura Martin of Signal Mountain, Tenn. She also leaves behind treasured nieces and nephews, and was grateful for the love and support of her friends, and of the staff of the Dialysis Unit at Good Samaritan Hospital. Visitation will be held on Thursday, December 8, 2011, from 5-8 p.m. at the Gwen Mooney Funeral Home located at Spring Grove Cemetery. The funeral service and burial will begin Friday, December 9, 2011, at 11 a.m., followed by a luncheon for family and friends at the Gwen Mooney reception area. In lieu of flowers, memorials can be made to the Dialysis Unit Fund at Good Samaritan Hospital Foundation, 375 Dixmyth Avenue, Cincinnati, OH 45220.
