Imogene Powell

Imogene Powell, 75 years old, of Miami Township, went home to be with the Lord on Friday, June 24th. She was born in Manchester, Kentucky, the daughter of Jimmie and Sallie Arnett.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Oliver, her parents, Jimmie and Sallie and her brother, Argene Arnett.

She was a beautician and operated her own beauty salon in East Dayton for many years. Imogene was quick to smile and had a great sense of humor. To quote the words of Frank Sinatra, she did it her way. She was an avid reader, card player and enjoyed crocheting and listening to gospel, country and bluegrass music.

Imogene leaves behind her daughter, Linda Freier, a son, Albert Hoskins, Jr., her grandchildren, Sarah Broadstock, Rachel Freier, Kelly Brown and Rebecca Hoskins, her great grandson, Samuel, her sisters, Irene Stewart, Violet Bowling, Mattie Brinley and Mona Garrison, her brother James Arnett and a host of nieces and nephews.

A funeral service will be held on Wednesday, July 6, 2016 at 2:00 pm at Newcomer Funeral Home, 3940 Kettering Blvd., Kettering, Ohio 45439. Burial will follow at Highland Memorial Cemetery. Imogene's family will greet friends at the funeral home on Wednesday from 12:00 pm until service time.
