  Loderbauer, Helen M.Helen Loderbauer, 85, entered into eternal rest on Saturday, May 21, 20 05 at St. Paul Elder Services, where she had resided the past two years. S he was born July 16, 1919 in Duluth, Minnesota, daughter of the late Ca rl and Anna (Falk) Gabrielson. Helen married Joseph Loderbauer Sr. on Apr il 20, 1937 in Kaukauna; he preceded her in death on November 26, 1977. S he and her husband operated a dairy farm in rural Kaukauna for forty year s. Helen's family and friends will always remember her warm and friendly s mile, her kindness, generosity, and her close relationship with God. She g ave of herself constantly her entire life. Helen loved flowers, cooking, s ewing, and most of all sharing time with her family. She waited anxious ly for the holiday season with the anticipation of preparing a huge meal a nd having family and any one else who needed a place to go around her tabl e. Her family meant the world to her, and she and her husband gave their a ll to them. Strangers were always welcomed at their door. After losing h er beloved husband in 1977, she pursued a career as a banquet cook at Hi gh Cliff Supper Club for several years. Here she was a "mom" to her young er co-workers. Helen loved people, and continued to meet new people as s he traveled around the state for nearly twenty years with family, selli ng her homemade crafts, mostly pillows. She sewed over two thousand of th em over the years. Helen was part of a prayer chain at church and sent o ut hundreds of cards to church members. She had a zest for life, even aft er losing her first leg at the age of seventy-five. She continually bright ened someone's day with calls, visits, or special gifts. Everyone who cros sed her path will sadly miss her, but we are all happy that she is at pea ce with our heavenly Father and other family members. Helen enjoyed visiti ng the sick and the elderly, and truly appreciated everything God had giv en to her. Even at her worst, she said, "It could be worse." Helen also en joyed an occasional trip to the casino with her family, mainly becau se of the people she could chat with around her. She enjoyed those tri ps a little more when she won a little! Helen knew that life was mea nt to be lived and shared with others.She is survived by five children: Joseph (Donna) Loderbauer of Menasha; Mi ke (Connie) Loderbauer of Appleton; Sr. Jane Marie Loderbauer of Kaukaun a; Betty (Huguener) Bastia of California; and Joan (David) McCormick of Me nasha.
