farmed until Frank’s retirement in the mid-1970s, at which time, she went to
work at Oakbrook Health & Rehab, in Thorp, for 10 years until retiring. She
resided on the family farm until entering Morgan Plaza, in Thorp, in 2012.
She had many interests, but especially enjoyed gardening and taking care of her
animals.

Betty (Dennis) Moskiewicz of Rockport, TX; four grandchildren; seven
great-grandchildren; five great-great-grandchildren; nieces, nephews, other
