  Gen Doris Karweick, age 87, of Seymour, passed away peacefully on May 22, 2011, at her home in Meadow Wood Residential Care Apartments with her dear friends Judith and Roger Grode at her side after a courageous battle with cancer. Gen was born on October 6, 1923, in the Town of Osborn, the daughter of Louia and Louise (Krahn) Arndt. She married her best friend, Claude Karweick, on December 18, 1946, in Seymour. Together they farmed and they raised their two children, Betty and Richard (Dick). Claude preceded her in death in November 1995. Gen graduated from Idlewild Grade School and Seymour High School with several of her dearest friends with whom she has remained close for many years. A life-long member of Emmanuel Lutheran Church, Gen frequently contributed gifts in memory of friends to the church's library. Gen is survived by her daughter Betty (Robert Schnur) Karweick of Madison (and Betty's stepsons Dan of California and Jon (Elisa) of New Jersey (and their children Matthew, Elizabeth and Philip)); and her son Richard (Beth) of Kentucky (and their children Emily, Lauren (James) Perry and Christopher). She is also survived by her two brothers: Robert (Arlene) Arndt of California and James (Janet) Arndt of Florida; her sister-in-law Georgia (Theodore) Arndt of De Pere; her sister-in-law Eunice (Lester) Karweick of Seymour; and her sister Florence Krohlow of Seymour. Gen is also blessed to have many cherished, supportive nieces and nephews who often remembered "Aunt Gen" with cards, photos and letters. Gen was preceded in death by her parents, brother Theodore, sisters Sylvia Mae and Mildred Eisenreich, sister-in-law Gertrude and her husband Frank Kailhofer, brothers-in-law and their wives Harold (Corinne) and Norman (Marge) and brothers-in-law Elmer Krohlow, Robert Eisenreich and Lester Karweick. Gen's family would like to extend a special thank you to the extraordinarily compassionate and positive caregivers at Meadow Wood Residential Care Apartments in Seymour. These wonderful women and men treated Gen and everyone associated with her in truly humanitarian ways, never waning in patience and good cheer. They have a special affinity and mutually-kind relationship with each of their residents like no other we experienced. Gen could not have lived in a more joyful and active place. Moreover, Gen's family members appreciate the generous love and support from family (especially her niece Mary Eisenreich), friends and members of the Heartland Hospice group who all made her last days truly comfortable. Finally, the family wants to express their sincere thank you to Judith and Roger Grode of Black Creek, steadfast, true "angels among us." They assisted Claude and Gen for many years in dozens of ways, never seeking any recognition for their limitless out-pouring of love and pure joy. They made Gen's last days peaceful, comfortable and dignified in every way they could; we are truly blessed to count them among our adopted family members. A gathering of family and friends will take place on Wednesday, June 8th, 2011 at the Good Shepherd Home Chapel, Seymour, from 10 a.m. until a memorial service at 11 a.m. with Pastor Roland Lindeman officiating. A private burial service will be held at the Emmanuel Lutheran Cemetery. The family suggests any memorials may be sent to Meadow Wood Residential Care Apartments, 605 East Bronson Road, Seymour, WI 54165. Online condolences are available at www.muehl boettcher.com And may this hopeful message sustain us all when we lose someone we love more than life itself: "The memories of the blissful moments I have spent with you come creeping over me, and I feel most gratified to God and to you that I have enjoyed them for so long. ... If the dead can come back to this earth and flit unseen around those they loved, I shall always be near you; in the gladdest days and in the darkest nights ... always, always, and if there be a soft breeze upon your cheek, it shall be my breath, as the cool air fans your throbbing temple, it shall be my spirit passing by. ... Do not mourn me dead; think I am gone and wait for thee, for we shall meet again. ..." A letter from Sullivan Ballou to his wife Sarah a week before he was killed at the Battle of Bull Run, July 21, 1861. Yes, we shall all meet again. 6/6/2011 Genevieve "Gen" Karweick, age 87, of Seymour passed away peacefully on May 22, 2011, at her home in Meadow Wood Residential Care Apartments.
