Obituary:
Eunice E. Heiman, age 87, of Clintonville, passed away Wednesday evening, June 15, 2011, at the Greentree Health & Rehabilitation Center in Clintonville.
Eunice was born on July 6, 1923, in the Town of Deer Creek, Outagamie County, WI, as the daughter of the late Herman and Olga (Wilfuer) Koehler. She was confirmed in 1938 and graduated from Shiocton High School in 1942. On May 22, 1948, Eunice was united in marriage to Chester "Chet" Heiman at the St. John's Lutheran Church in the Town of Deer Creek. The couple then farmed Eunice's family's farm in the Town of Deer Creek until they sold it to their son Scott in the late 1980s. Chet and Eunice then moved to Clintonville in 1991 where they were members of the Christus Lutheran Church. Eunice was active at church with the C.L.C.W. She also was involved in her community as a member of the Homemaker's Group. In her younger years, Eunice was employed at hairpin, the Glove Factory, and, of course, the farm. Eunice loved spending time with her children and later her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She always had candy or gum ready for them, as well as for the neighborhood children who would bring her paper and mail to her. She also liked shopping and enjoyed going out to eat with Chet. Chet recently preceded his wife in death on July 4, 2010. Eunice will be remembered for her love of her family and her faith in Christ.
