Obituary:
Holly Jean (Dorschner) Degal was granted one of her wishes on Tuesday November 25, 2014 when she was finally able to run again, this time into the arms of our Lord and Savior. With her passing, she is free from brain cancer that has burdened her for over 20 years. She is now able to live and play ball amongst the angels in Heaven.
Holly was born on a snowy October 1, 1974 to Marv and Bonnie Dorschner (Woods). She was baptized and confirmed at Bethlehem Ev. Lutheran Church in Hortonville. Holly attended Hortonville High School where she was a standout three-sport athlete and served as Senior Class President. After graduating from high school in 1992, Holly went to work at several title companies in Appleton. She was then hired by Outagamie County where she worked in the Register of Deeds Office until 2008.
Her cancer may have stolen her ability to work, but it could never take away her spunk and sassiness. Holly always kept her sense of faith, humor and optimism. One of her best traits was her ability to be open, honest, and forthcoming. She never once used her illness as an excuse and feeling sorry for herself was never an option. When cancer stripped away her ability to complete even a simplistic everyday task, she would adapt and find a way to get it done. She liked her independence, and was always the last to ask for help. Holly was an inspiration to the people around her who admired her strength, courage, and resilience. Time after time when the cancer returned, she faced the challenge head on. She did not let her illness interfere with what she enjoyed doing most which was watching her two sons Zachary and Dylan play sports.
In addition to her parents, Holly will be dearly missed by her children Zachary and Dylan Degal; her sisters, Jill (Bob) Kramer, Deb (Rob) Sager, Pam (Tim) Van Ornum; her brother Jeff (Crystal) Dorschner; her nieces and nephews, Brett and Drew Kramer, Collin, Brittany (goddaughter), and Ashley Sager, Emma, Ava, Joshua (godson) and Abigail Van Ornum, Haili and Kaden Dorschner, Natalie (goddaughter) and Cole Degal. She will also be sadly missed by her grandmother, Marie Woods; her aunts and uncles, Mary (Phil) Endter, Margie (Pat) Cousineau, Jack (Jody) Woods, Steve (Faye) Woods, Mike (Theresa) Woods, Patrick (Cheryl) Woods, Beth Dorschner, and numerous special cousins and friends including Katie Woods, Melissa Joyce, Jenny Stuewer, Jen Kalwitz, Chris Roesler, and Staci Radtke. She also enjoyed the friendship she had with Paula Smith at Parkside Care Center.
Watching over Holly in Heaven are her grandparents, Ronald and Anita Dorschner, Earl Woods; aunts and uncle, David (Dianne) Dorschner and Janet Dorschner.
The family would like to graciously thank the medical professionals at the Neurospine Center and Appleton Medical Center including Dr. Wascher, David Bond, Dr. Krueger, Patty Martins, and Karen Wild. We would also like to thank Audrey Kalbs, Linda Kitterman, Jill Smith, Tonya Carpenter and all the nurses and aides at Parkside Care Center and Heartland Hospice.
A celebration of Holly's life will be held at Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran Church in Greenville ( N1615 Meadowview Dr.) on Friday November 28, 2014 at 4:00 p.m. with Pastor Steven Kline officiating. The family will receive friends starting at 12:00 p.m. until the time of the service.
Mom--
You fought a tough battle for a long time never complaining and always with a smile. We will miss you and will always think about you. We won't forget about you either, we miss seeing you and spending time with you. We know you're in a better place in God's hands and have no more struggles. Goodbye and we will always love you Mom.
Love Zach & Dylan
If roses grow in Heaven, Lord please pick a bunch for us, place them in our sister's arms and tell her they're from us. Tell her we love her and miss her, and when she turns to smile, place a kiss upon her cheek and hold her for awhile. Because remembering her is easy, we do it every day, but there's an ache within our hearts that will never go away.
