  Appleton - Age 92, passed away at Brookdale Senior Living in Appleton on Friday, June 29, 2018. Elayne was born on April 6, 1926 in Appleton to the late Gustav and Henrietta (Kleuskens) Ristow. After attending high school at Appleton West, Elayne met and then married the love of her life, Lloyd "Lefty" Schabow on May 26, 1948 at St. Mary's Catholic Church in Appleton. They spent the next 55 years together raising two boys and living the life before Lloyd passed away on July 16, 2003. Elayne was a lifelong bridge player-she absolutely loved to play cards. She was a great cook and dessert maker, loved to socialize (on the phone) and of course she loved to shop. Elayne was a lifelong member of St. Mary Catholic Church and was dedicated to her faith. She had a loving smile and a warm heart for every person she ever met throughout her life. She will be greatly missed by all who knew her even those who only knew her a short time at Brookdale. Elayne is survived by her son David Schabow, grandchildren Brianna and Conner and their mother Michele Schabow, sisters Grace Wege and Carole Ristow. She is further survived by many nieces, nephews, relatives and friends. Elayne is preceded in death by her parents, her infant brothers Kenneth and Melvin, her infant sister Ione; her brothers Gordon Ristow and Arvin Ristow; sisters Bernice Muraski and Mary Jane Stumpf; sister-in-law Janet Ristow, brothers-in-law Donald J. Stumpf, Richard Wege and Leo Muraski. And most recently by her son Robert Schabow, who passed away on April 14, 2018. The funeral liturgy will be at 12:00 Noon on Friday, July 6, 2018 at ST. MARY CATHOLIC CHURCH, 312 South State Street, Appleton, with Fr. William Swichtenberg officiating. Friends will be received at St. Mary Catholic Church at 10:00 AM until the time of service. Entombment will be at Appleton Highland Memorial Park. Elayne's family would like to thank the staff at Brookdale, especially Rose and Rachel, and to Compassus Hospice for all their care and compassion and support and comfort during her transition-thank you Jina. And to all, your kindness will not be forgotten. Memorials to St. Mary Catholic Church in Elayne's name are appreciated. Published in Appleton Post-Crescent on July 4, 2018
