  Delores (Bastian) Schroeder, age 91, died peacefully December 8, 2014, at Living Tree Estates in Greenville surrounded by her family. She was born on April 8, 1923, in Appleton to the late Roy Bastian and Elsie (Wolf) Bastian. She was baptized in the name of Jesus Christ on May 8, 1923, at St. Paul's Lutheran Church, Appleton, WI. She lead a Christian life always embracing her family with unconditional love. She attended Appleton West High School where she met the love of her life, Ronald L. Schroeder, whom she married on June 12, 1948. For the first few years of their marriage, Delores worked as a receptionist at Bassett Refrigeration (now Bassett Mechanical). In 1948, Ronald and Delores purchased the family farm and spent over 40 years farming. Delores helped by driving tractor, caring for a large garden and raising their 4 children, dedicating much of her time to her special-needs daughter, Lori. She was a dedicated member of Immanuel Lutheran Church, Greenville, as a member of ladies aide and counting donations for many years. She enjoyed bowling on multiple leagues. She and Ronald enjoyed playing cards and were members of a card club that continued for over 70 years. She thoroughly enjoyed spending time at the family cottage on Lake Winneconne, especially after their retirement. In her later years, she and her sister Germaine spent time together almost every weekend until health issues prevented them from staying alone. They later re-united at Living Tree Estates. She cherished her visits with her loving grand children and great grand children until the very end. Delores is survived by her children; Susan Swafford (Larry), Gresham; Janis (Rick) Bartel, Shiocton; Lori Ann Schroeder, Appleton. Delores was preceded in death by her son, Jon (Jack) whom she dearly missed. She is survived by Jack's wife, Caroline Schroeder, and their children; Christi (Matt) Schluetter, Appleton, and her great-grandchildren Jack, Wyatt, Oliver and Maggie; and Brad Schroeder (special friend, Katie. Delores is further survived by Susan's step children, Paul (Wanda) Drews and Charles (Laura) Drews and their children, brother-in-law Harland Schroeder, Greenville, and sister-in-law, Marion Schroeder, Hortonville and numerous nieces and nephews. Delores was further preceded in death by her husband, Ronald in 2002, her parents, Roy & Elsie Bastian, her parents-in-law, Harry & Hilda Schroeder, her sister, Germaine, brother-in law, Leon Schroeder & sister-in-law, MarJean Schroeder. The family wishes to thank Living Tree Estates and their wonderful staff for the care and love they gave Delores during the two years she resided there. She enjoyed the many activities offered to her especially the weekly Happy Hours. Their support of Delores and the family during her final struggles was heartwarming and will not be forgotten. Special thanks also to Tanya from Heartland Hospice for her kindness and loving support during moms stay at Living Tree Estates.
