    Ann Opsteen, age 93, of Combined Locks, died January 13, 2016, at her residence. Arrangements are pending Wichmann Funeral Home.Online condolences may be expressed at www.wichmannfargo.com

    Ann C. (Spierings) Opsteen, age 93, passed away on January 13, 2016 in her home with family at her side. She was born April 8, 1922, to the late John and Jacoba (Marijnissen) Spierings in Combined Locks where she lived her entire life. Her parents emigrated from the Netherlands and she learned to read and write Dutch. She was always near the top of her class and graduated from Kimberly High School in 1940. Ann had a strong passion for learning all her life.
    Ann married John on January 12, 1946, after he returned from WWII. Together they raised their eight children. In her "free" time she worked in her garden and played horseshoes at Kamps Kovered Kourts. She pitched horseshoes in many tournaments throughout the state and won many trophies. She was the first woman inducted into the Wisconsin Horseshoe Pitchers Hall of Fame in 1983. Ann taught Religious Education at St. Paul Catholic Church where she was a lifelong member. She joined the Mission Sewing Club around 1968 and remained active until recently. She served 10 years in the 70s and 80s on the Combined Locks Planning Committee.
    Family gatherings with her children and sons- and daughters-in-law and their families were occasions for food, fun and laughter. Ann's curiosity of nature (especially insects) was shared with not only her children but the whole neighborhood. Her most important legacies are her successful 15 grandchildren and 10 great-grandchildren in whom she took great pride.
    Ann is survived by her children,
    •Robert with his family: son Ronald (Debra) with daughter Rebecca; daughter Jean (Paul) Krueger with sons Ethan and Elliot; and son John (Nicole) with daughter Mazzy and son Cole;
    •Barbara (David) Schreiber with their family: daughters Jennifer and Megan (Adam) Danczyk;

    •Mary (Greg) Fabisiak with their family: sons Alex (special friend Cara) and Tim;
