  Otto, Leona Age 88, of New London, died Saturday Feb. 26, 2005 at Riverside Hospital in Waupaca. She was born on January 16, 1917 in Shiocton, daughter of the late Gustav & Ida (Conradt) Scherning. On November 14, 1936 she married August (Owie) Otto. They farmed for many years in the Shiocton area before moving to New London. They enjoyed 56 years of marriage before August passed away in 1992. Leona?s occupation was homemaker although she had various jobs over the years, including local restaurants, Hortonville Toy Factory, and cleaning offices. She and August also owned the Pantry Restaurant in New London for several years before selling it to their daughter. The love of her life was her family, with her favorite past time being cooking and baking some very festive meals which we all enjoyed. She also enjoyed gardening and playing cards. She is survived by two sons; Russell (Diane) Otto, New London; Gary (Boni) Otto, Homewood, IL; one daughter; Karen (Bill) Baehr, Kaukauna; one son-in-law, Chet Lyon, New London. Also 13 grandchildren, 25 great-grandchildren and numerous nieces and nephews.

Friends may call at the funeral home on Wednesday from 9 a.m. until the time of service. Interment will be in the Turney Hill Cemetery. A Memorial Fund has been established. When God created Leona, she was precious like no other. We, her children, who love her, were blessed to call her Mother. The family would like to thank the CNA?s of Weyauwega Health Care Center for their loving care these past two years. Cline & Hanson Funeral Home 209 W. Cook St., New London 920-982-3232
