Obituary:
Aerts, Marvin H.Who would have ever thought when we woke up early Thursday morning we 'd be saying our final goodbyes early Friday morning? But that's how so me things go I guess. There's never a good time to be beckoned home - but w hen you're called, it's time to go.Marvin H. Aerts was called home Friday, March 17, 2006, at the age of 8 6. He was born April 8, 1919, in Stiles Junction, to Louis and Nancy (Prie s) Aerts. He was the oldest of 10 children. On Jan. 17, 1942, Marvin marri ed the love of his life, Fern Ives. They exchanged wedding vows in Green B ay and set sail on a life together. At the age of 24, Marvin left to ser ve his country in World War II. In the next few years their love produc ed four children, Janice, Homer, Joan and Jim, all of whom are alive and w ell today. Following the Navy, the Aerts put down roots in Green Bay, wi th Marvin working the next 32 years at nearby Northwest Engineering. He re tired in 1980 and was planning on taking his bride and leaving snowy Wisco nsin behind by spending more time in Arizona. Those plans changed sudden ly when Fern, our grandmother, was called home on Dec. 6, 1982. As we a ll know there's no good time to go home, as I know she would have given a ll her slot-machine winnings in the world to watch her grandchildren gr ow up with her. But she's had her eye on the 13 of us for the past 24 yea rs and I don't think she'll be stopping anytime soon. After Fern died, Mar vin's handsome looks didn't keep him on the market for long as he marri ed Chesterine Pranica the following October. They have been married ever s ince.
As my brother and I (Stephen) were driving up to Oconto Falls Thursday nig ht to say our last goodbyes, my brother, Pat, was reminiscing about the ti mes when he and our sister, Kristi, would drive with Grandma from their la st home in Little Suamico down to Green Bay to pick up Grandpa from wor k. The three of us spent many summers at Grandpa's and Grandma's house. Be ing from Milwaukee and not seeing all of our cousins that often, summers a nd holidays meant one thing - Little Suamico, playing with our cousins a nd Grandma and "Gramps," as Mike used to call him. On the drive up we reme mbered driving with Grandma in her big old Oldsmobile Delta 88 down count ry roads looking for frogs by the bay, or they would take all of us grandk ids over to Nelson's to play pinball so we could try and win a 6-pack of 7 -Up. It's too bad Daniel doesn't have many memories of playing with Grand ma and Gramps as he was too young. The same thing for our cousins Rober t, Rodney, Ronald, Kim or Steven as they lived in California and just didn 't see them as much as the three of us, along with Pat, Jerry, Mike, Tyrel le and Daniel. Those were some good times, but I get the feeling that Gran dma had enough of this waiting around and was ready to head back to Arizo na to continue the journey they started 24 years ago.
So early Friday morning as he was surrounded by his loved ones, I think Gr andma, with Tyrelle and John in the backseat, were there to pick up Grand pa one last time. I just hope they save room in the car for the re st of us ... I'm sure they will.
Survivors include his wife, Chesterine; his children and their spouses, Ja nice (Neil) Staedler, Homer Aerts, Joan (Tom) Garrity, Jim Aerts and his f iancee, Sandy; 13 grandchildren; 14 great-grandchildren; one great-great-g randchild; two brothers and sisters-in-law, Reuben (Edith) Aerts, Earl (Je an Ann) Aerts; three sisters and brothers-in-law, Grace (Norb) Desotell, E va (Jim) Schumerth, Nancy (Jim) Seyler; two sisters-in-law, Shirley Aert s, Jeanne Aerts. He is also survived by a daughter-in-law, Candy Aerts-Dun kerley; an uncle and aunt, Walter (Edith) Pries.
He was preceded in death by his parents; his first wife, Fern; two grandch ildren, John Aerts, Tyrelle Woodworth; three brothers and one sister, Adri an Aerts, Victor Aerts, Maxine Aerts and Ken Aerts.
