Heier, Deloris C. (Witucki) (28 APR 1929 - 23 FEB 2018)

Deloris C. Heier, 88, Athens, died Friday, Feb. 23, 2018, under the care of Ministry Home Care Hospice at Dycora Transitional Health, Abbotsford.

She was born April 28, 1929, in the town of Rietbrock, daughter of the late Andrew and Julia (Nowicki) Witucki. On Sept. 12, 1951, she married Lawrence Heier at Holy Family Catholic Church, Poniatowski, and they raised four children together.

After the children were grown, she took on a part-time position at the Athens Drycleaning LLC, a job she liked very much. She enjoyed meeting and chit-chatting with people; she was always quick with a funny one-liner. Family birthday parties were highlights in her life, having a drink, playing cards, especially Canasta and Sheepshead with her family. She was always the first one at the table.

Survivors include her children, Gary (Kathy) Heier, Plover, Laurel Heier, Athens, Jay (Carole Luszcak) Heier, Athens, and Dee (Steve) Brewster, Athens; grandchildren, Mike (Erika) Heier, Plover, Adam (Sara Woodard) Heier, Madison, Steve (Elizabeth Reeths) Heier, Wausau, Jayson Heier, Madison, April (Devin) Cyzan, Wausau, Aaron Brewster, Eau Claire, and Elizabeth Brewster, Madison; great-grandchildren, Lila Heier, Plover, and Deklan Cyzan, Wausau; brothers, Kenneth (Denise) Witucki , Spring Valley, and Rev. Roy Witucki, Custer; sisters-in-law, Shirley Witucki, Norma Heier, Marcella Sobie and Henrietta (Harvey) Klympyan.

Besides her parents and husband, Lawrence; she was preceded in death by a brother, Walter; niece and goddaughter, Linda Rogers; niece, Lisa Heldt; and nephews, Dennis Heier, Tom Klumpyan and Paul Sobie.

The funeral Mass will be celebrated at 11 a.m. on Saturday, March 3, 2018, at St. Anthony Catholic Church, Athens. Rev. George Graham and Rev. Roy Witucki will preside. Burial will be in Calvary Cemetery, Athens. Visitation will be Saturday from 9:30 a.m. until the time of service, all at the church.

The family wishes to extend their sincere thanks to Dycora Transitional Health for their devotion and friendship to Deloris. She had her sense of humor and clever quips to the very end. Lastly, thanks to Ministry Home Care Hospice for her comfort during her last few days.
