  Betty Bevers, Kaukauna, age 83, was called to Heaven's Kitchen on Monday, December 8, 2014. She was born on July 24, 1931, the daughter of Nick and Anaceil (Conrad) Milbach. On June 7, 1952, she was joined in marriage to the love of her life, Les Bevers at Holy Cross Church. They would be virtually inseparable for the next 62 years. They would live for most of their time together in the Kimberly/Wrightstown/Kaukauna area, with a brief, idyllic and very happy period at their cozy little cottage in the woods near Crandon, Wisconsin. Mom was an amazing cook and baker, and for years enjoyed crocheting to create beautiful handwork for her children and grandchildren. During their six years at the cottage, she and Dad would reel in plenty of fish while enjoying their time together on their favorite fishing holes. She and Dad also enjoyed sharing memories and stories of the "good old days", and spending time with their many grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Mom was a loving and faithful wife and mother, and there was never a doubt about her character and strength during times of adversity. Through it all, Mom and Dad made a wonderful home for their eight children. Over the years, their brood grew and married, which made for some amazing holiday and special event celebrations! Mom was well-known in the family for her prodigious collection of Santa dolls, decorations and figurines, which occupies quite a large storage area in the basement. Betty leaves us a treasure trove of everlasting memories and an amazing legacy! She will be dearly missed by her loving husband, Les, and their children Chris (Joyce), Kaukauna and their children, Gwen (Chad) Vanderpas, and James (Michelle) Bevers; Richard (Lucy), Appleton, and their children Richard (Beverly) Bevers and Eric Bevers; David (Susan), Fremont, and their children Jennie Krause and Tim Bevers; Cynthia (Don) Kunstman, Combined Locks, and their children Jeremiah (Katie) Kunstman, Kim Tavarez, and Matthew (Rebecca) Kunstman; Thomas (Lynn), Darboy, and their children Nick Bevers, Michael (Heather) Bevers and Nathan Bevers; JoAnn, Menasha, and her children Joshua Bevers, Amanda (Chris) Smith, and Rebecca Sokolowski (special friend, Ricky Davis); and Shelly (Orlan) Buchholtz, Hortonville, and their children Mickenzie (Nathan) Gust, Heather, Robbin, and Brooke; and her pride and joy, twenty-two great-grandchildren. She is further survived by brothers, Richard Milbach, Texas, and Daniel (Marlene) Milbach, Port Washington, and her twin sister Bonnie Milbach, Sturgeon Bay; brother-in-law Donald Bevers, Penns Grove, NJ and sisters-in-law Della Milbach, Appleton, Sandy (Leo) Coonen, Waupaca and Kasey Thomas (Milbach), Kaukauna; a dear aunt, Margaret Vanhimbergen; close cousin, Germaine Nagan; special neighbors, Mernie Roloff and Ray Harvey; numerous nieces, nephews and other relatives; and a lifetime of friends. In addition to her parents, Betty was preceded in death by an infant son, Steven; her father- and mother-in-law Peter and Josephine (Jansen) Bevers; brothers Nicholas Milbach and his wife, Dorothy, Robert Milbach, and William Milbach; sisters-in-law LaVerne Mathis and her husband Jacob; Elizabeth (Betty) Verstegen and her husbands Jerome and Merlin; and Katherine Bevers; and a dear niece, Gail Balthazor. A celebration of Betty's life will be held at 4:00 p.m., on Thursday, December 11, 2014, at the O'CONNELL FUNERAL HOME (1776 E. Main St., Little Chute). This celebration will include a brief prayer service and sharing of memories of a life well-lived. Interment of cremated remains will be at St. Paul Catholic Cemetery, Wrightstown, WI, at a later date. In lieu of flowers, a memorial fund in Betty's name is being established for ThedaCare Hospice Foundation. To sign the guest book, please visit oconnellfh.com.
