Mable Pauline (Dommer) Hankey, 96, of Indianapolis, died Tuesday, June 29, 2021. Mable was born on September 6, 1924 to Otto and Mollie (Henning) Dommer in Denham, Indiana. She married Carl Alfred William Hankey on April 1, 1945. Over the years, they lived on a farm in Jasper County, in Rensselaer, and in Indianapolis.
A lover of fashion, Mable was known for her vast collection of brightly colored hats, eyeglasses, and costume jewelry. She was a devoted member of Carmel Lutheran Church and enjoyed visiting with other parishioners during the coffee hour. Much to her grandchildren’s delight, she always snuck candy and surprises into the service. She volunteered with the Lutheran Women’s Missionary League. Mable had a zest for life and enjoyed entertaining, socializing, baking, playing cards, and spending time with her family.
She is survived by her son, Charles D. Hankey (Carol) of Indianapolis; two granddaughters, Anne H. Forman (Randy) of Glencoe, Illinois and Emily C. Hankey of Brooklyn, New York; two great granddaughters Madeline and Elizabeth Forman; one sister, Mary Abbott; and two brothers, Donald Dommer and Rev. Ronald Dommer. She is preceded in death by her parents; her husband, Carl; her daughter in law, Elizabeth; her four sisters, Helen Berg, Velma Kasten, Thelma Weldy, and Marcella Hoffman; and her five brothers, August, Walter, Harold, Henry, and Richard.
