Jean Marie DeKoch, Kaukauna, age 90, passed away on Thursday, January 20, 2016 at Appleton Medical Center, surrounded by the family she so loved. She was born on July 4, 1925 to the late Robert and Marie Heinen. Jean was a graduate of Kaukauna High School.

She was elected Parish President of the Ladies Altar Society of St. Aloysius Parish in the early 1970's, prior to their consolidation with St. Katharine Drexel. Jean possessed a special talent for interior decorating, which was apparent in her home. She was also a talented seamstress, always paying very particular attention to detail.
