They made their home in Seymour their entire married lifetime, where they ran their business, Schoenća€™s Refrigeration, for many years. She enjoyed bowling, hunting and especially trout fishing; and as the saying goes, ća€œshe could fish in a pail all day and be perfectly content just being able to fishća€. She was also an avid card player and spent many hours with her family and friends enjoying her very favorite pastime. Helen was a faithful member of St. Johnća€™s Catholic Church, Seymour.
She is survived by her daughter, Shirley (Robert) Doepker, Appleton; her son, James (Carla) Schoen, Seymour; grandchildren: Steven (Sandy) Doepker, Appleton; Kenneth (Gail) Doepker, Winneconne; Dr. Sandra (Peter) Groenewold, Appleton; Lisa (Mark) Elsner, Seymour; John (Karen) Schoen, Seymour; nine great-grandchildren: Kristin, Stephanie, and Scott Doepker, Appleton; Dustin Doepker, Neenah; Olivia Groenewold, Appleton; and Aisling, Whittney and Luke Elsner, Seymour; and Emily Schoen, Seymour.
