  Isla A. Flink Suprise, 82, New London, formerly of the Township of Union, Waupaca County, passed away on Thursday, Dec. 23, 2010, at the St. Joseph Residence, New London. Isla was born on June 19, 1928, the tenth child of twelve in the Township of Maple Creek, Outagamie County, the daughter of the late John and Mabel (Burton) Stilen. She also was raised in the Township of Maple Creek. Isla later met Harold E. Flink at a dance at Pleasant View in the Township of Deer Creek, Outagamie County. They married on Aug. 31, 1947, at Immanuel Lutheran Church, New London. The couple lived and farmed in the Township of Union for thirty years. Harold preceded his wife in death in 1977.
