  Valda D. "Val" Kaddatz Valda, surrounded by her family, went home to the waiting arms of her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, on November 29, 2014. Valda was born in the Town of Deer Creek, Wisconsin on December 1, 1922, to the late George W. and Ida (Faneuf) Nitzske. She was baptized on August 19, 1928, at St. John Lutheran Church in Deer Creek, Wisconsin. She reaffirmed her faith at her confirmation on June 14, 1936. "Commit thy way unto the Lord, trust also in Him, and He shall bring it to pass." Psalm 37:5. On June 2, 1945, Valda was united in marriage with Roland (Bud) H. Kaddatz at St. Paul Ev. Lutheran Church, Stephensville, Wisconsin. They enjoyed 65 loving years together before Bud's passing in August 2010. Val was a devoted mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. Valda graduated from Shiocton High School in 1940, and shortly after graduation moved to Appleton where she worked until her marriage to Bud. Together they engaged in dairy farming in the Town of Bovina until their retirement 1982. At the age of 10 in 1932, during the Great Depression, Val, along with her sister Loretta, moved to Michigan to live with their aunt for one year. This experience instilled in Val a deep appreciation for "being home" and a simple lifestyle. Her simple pleasures included sewing, doing ceramics, gardening, and baking. Fiercely independent, Val continued to live on the "home farm" until suffering a stroke in July of 2014. Her diminutive stature often belied her physical and inner strength. The most important things in Val's life were her faith, family, and friends. During the past 69 years, she was a faithful member at St. Paul Lutheran Church and the Ladies Aid. She deeply appreciated visits from her "good" neighbors, nieces, nephews, and friends. She cherished time spent with her family, especially holidays. The legacy she leaves her family is her steadfast faith, her kind and generous spirit, a persistent work ethic, and a keen sense of humor. The void she leaves is impossible to fill, but her family rejoices that she will now be in her eternal home for her birthday and the holidays. Valda is survived by two daughters and sons-in-law, Krystal (William) Schumacher, Green Bay and Karla (Thomas) Luehring, Shiocton; five grandchildren, Scott Schumacher, Green Bay, Reverend Andrew (Nicole) Luehring, Kaukauna, Timothy Schumacher, Green Bay, Mitchell (Rachel) Luehring, LaCrosse, and Brittany(special friend Chris Burden and his daughter Sienna)Luehring, Hales Corners, and three great-grandchildren, Tyler Schumacher, Ian and Tabitha Luehring. She is further survived by sisters-in-law Elda Van Handel, Lila Kaddatz, Bernice Nitzske; brother-in-law Lyle Kaddatz; and many nieces, nephews, great-nieces, and great-nephews. In addition to her parents and her husband, Valda was preceded in death by her infant twin daughters, Lois and Louise; brothers Herbert (Helen) Nitzske, Ervin (Madeline) Nitzske, Alfred, Ralph, and Roger Nitzske; sisters Eleanor (William) Kuhnke, Loretta (Clifford) Nelson, and Bernice (Glen) Spaulding; and brothers and sisters-in-law Irene Kaddatz, Gladys (Clyde) Main, Elmer Kaddatz, Art VanHandel, and Mary Jane Kaddatz. The family will receive family and friends at St.Paul Ev. Lutheran Church, Stephensville, on Wednesday December 3 from 9 a.m. until the time of service at 11:30 a.m. with the Reverend Joel Lillo officiating. Committal services will follow at the Ellington Union Cemetery. In lieu of other expressions of sympathy, a memorial fund in Valda's memory to support Christian education has been established. The family extends their sincerest thanks to the staff of Heartland Hospice and the staff of Lawrence Hall at Brewster Village, Appleton for the exceptional care and compassion extended to Valda and her family.
