Obituary:
Luther "Mike" G. Huebner passed away at his Hortonville apartment on April 4, 2012, at the age of 91. He had been weakened by recent stomach surgery but had worked diligently with the staff at Rennes Health and Rehab Center and had achieved his goal of independent living.
Luther was born on January 6, 1921, in the Township of Greenville, Wisconsin, as the son of Louis and Elsie Huebner. He was raised on the family dairy farm in the Town of Greenville along with five siblings. He attended the one room Cedar Grove Elementary School and graduated from Appleton (West) High School.
Luther married Ada E. Baehman on September 9, 1944 at Bethlehem Ev. Lutheran Church in Hortonville, WI. Luther and Ada were long time members of Bethlehem where he served several terms on the church council.
Luther took over the family farm from his father Louis and was a successful farmer. He eventually sold the farm to his brother, Gerald, and moved to Hortonville in 1955. Luther then operated "Mike's Finer Foods," a general store/meat locker in Medina, WI. The emergence of "supermarkets" brought an end to country general stores and Luther sold his store in 1965. He began a third career as a school supply salesman. He first worked with Fond du Lac School Supply Co. and then greatly enjoyed his many years of employment with Valley School Supply until his retirement.
Luther was active in local school boards serving multiple terms on the school boards of the Hortonville Union School District and Fox Valley Lutheran High School in the 1950's and 60's. He was school board president of the Hortonville School District.
Luther was a strong, extroverted and vigorous man who loved sports. He and his brother Gerald were avid baseball players as young men. They played many country hardball games in the Greenville area. He was a life long Packer fan and began attending games at age 16. He purchased season tickets in 1945 and attended games faithfully through this past season. He could recall seeing each of the Packer's Hall of Fame players and coaches at some point in his 75 years of game attendance. Luther took up golf in his late 40's, after the Grandview Golf Course was built in Hortonville. He developed a passion for the game and still enjoyed playing at the age of 90.
Luther is survived by his wife of 67 years, Ada and four sons; Michael (Carol) of Hortonville, Rodney (Michele) of Middleton, Randal (Sonya) of Madison, and Scott (Elaine) of Rothschild. Luther had four grandchildren: Katherine, David, Benjamin and Rachel Huebner; two step-granddaughters Kimberley Brzozwski and Jennifer Valeri, and four step great grandchildren Tyler, Anna, Mya, and Evelyn. He has a surviving sister, Mae Baehman of Hortonville.
Luther was preceded in death by his parents Louis and Elsie Huebner; a brother Gerald Huebner; sisters Edith Kalbus, Adeline Jooss, and Lorraine Schafer; and a beloved daughter, Yvonne Huebner.
The Christian funeral service for Luther will be held at 11:00 A.M. on Monday, April 9, at Bethlehem Lutheran Church in Hortonville. Visitation will be held at the church before the service from 9 - 11:00 A.M.
Luther's family would like to thank the Medical staff at Appleton Medical Center and the staff at the Rennes Health and Rehab Center for their exemplary care.
Special thanks also go to the staff at Patti's Place in Hortonville for their kindness and friendship to Luther over the years.
