HELEN A. FISCHER
(1910 - 2008)

Helen A. Fischer, age 97, formerly of 140 Oak St., Whitelaw, died early on Sunday morning, Jan. 13, 2008, at North Ridge Medical and Rehabilitation Center of Manitowoc, where she resided the past seven months.

Helen was born on March 28, 1910, in the town of Cato, Manitowoc County, daughter of the late George and Mary (Augustine) Ellermann. She married Richard J. Fischer on June 29, 1937, at St. Michael Catholic Church, Whitelaw. He preceded her in death on Dec. 6, 1992. Helen was a homemaker who enjoyed raising her children, visiting with her grandchildren, sewing, gardening and baking. She was an expert at making yeast dough and loved to share her bakery with family and friends. Helen was a member of St. Michael Catholic Church and Christian Women. Her sewing skills were put to use as a member of the Mission Ladies of St. Michael. When she was no longer able to drive to church to do this work, she sewed many lap robes in her home that were donated to nursing homes and veterans' homes.

Survivors include a son: Dr. James H. Fischer, Whitewater; one daughter and son-in-law: Connie (Paul) Zeman, Manitowoc; five grandchildren: John (Tania) Fischer, Milwaukee; James (Becky) Fischer, Wauwatosa; Jeffrey (Amanda) Zeman, Manitowoc; Carrie (Paul) Miller, Green Bay; and Gina (Tommy) Lindwall, Madison; five great-grandchildren: Elijah Fischer; Jalen, Tony and Jada Fischer; and Mia Miller; and one sister-in-law: Bernice Gerl, Manitowoc. Nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends also survive. She was preceded in death by one sister and brother-in-law: Marie (Joseph) Lemberger; and one sister-in-law and two brothers-in-law: Alice (Edward) Skarda and Harold Gerl.

Funeral services will be held at 11 a.m. on Saturday, Jan. 19, 2008, at St. Michael Catholic Church, Whitelaw. The Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated by the Rev. David Zimmerman, with burial to follow in the parish cemetery.

The family will greet relatives and friends from 9:30 a.m. until the time of Mass at 11 a.m. on Saturday.

The Reinbold & Pfeffer Family Funeral Home of Kellnersville is assisting the family with funeral arrangements.

Helen's family would like to thank those who helped her in any way while she lived at home and the caring and competent staff of North Ridge for their patience and thoughtfulness.
