Biography:
A short biography from her brother, Robert Goetzman, written in 2001.Virginia Goetzman was a free spirit all of her life and enjoyed obliging h er many friends. She enjoyed trying to figure out "what made them tick." A fter she graduated from high school, she lived in Milwaukee where she atte nded college for a couple of years. She and Lester Coonen were marri ed in Holy Cross Church with the reception held in the back yard of our ho me on Desnoyer St. I remember how my dad got a little tipsy and g ot up on the picnic table and sang an old fashioned song for the crowd. L es was a self made man and installed roofing to earn his way through St. N orbert's College and then through the University of Wisconsin for h is Ph D in Biology. "Gin" as she was called and Les lived in Toledo f or a couple of years where he taught in the Biology Dept. Incidentally, G in had been baptized Lucile, but never went by that name. Then they mov ed to Detroit, where he was head of the Biology Dept. As the story goes, L es, on his way home from college one evening, stopped in a shoe store whi ch was having a sale. There was a rack of childrens shoes with about two d ozen shoes in various sizes. To the surprise of the salesperson, he boug ht the whole rack. With eleven children there was always shoes for o ne or another. Sometime during their stay in Detroit, Gin was diagnosed w ith having a brain tumor necessitating a surgical operation. Since the Uni versity of Detroit was a Jesuit School, she was inundated with prayers fr om the faculty and students. She came out of the operation with "flying co lors" and was put on exhibition the next day to all the medical studen ts as an example of the perfect operation. Upon retiring, Les and Gin mov ed to Fort Atkinson because it was near Whitewater Wisconsin which had a c ollege and a good library. After Les' death, Gin married his brother Jerome. Gin and Les are both buried in Fort Atkinson.
