Mauel, Eleanore (10 JAN 1917 – 16 JAN 1972)

At 11 o'clock Wednesday morning, January 19, 1971, funeral services were conducted for Miss Eleanore Mauel, 55, from the Holy Rosary Catholic Church, Owen. Father George Becker was in charge of the service, with burial being made at Riverside Cemetery.

Six nephews served as pallbearers.

Miss Mauel succumbed to a lingering illness at 11:15 p.m., Sunday, January 16, 1972, at Wausau North Hospital, where she had been taken in the city ambulance earlier that evening, when her condition took a sudden change for the worse.

Eleanore Mauel was born January 10, 1917 at Colby, Wisconsin, and came to Owen (Clark Co., Wis.) with her parents in 1920. Here she attended the public school system, from which she graduated, and then continued her education at Stevens Point Teachers College at Stevens Point. For 20 years she was employed as a bookkeeper for a CPA firm in Weyauwega. The past five years she has lived in Owen.

Her passing is mourned by her father, H.B. Mauel Sr., Owen; one brother, Henry Mauel Jr., Owen; three sisters, Mrs. Edward (Irene) Lehnen, Owen, Alice Mauel, Wausau, and Mrs. Marvin (Rosalie) Koenig, West Bend, Wis., and a wide set of acquaintances and friends she had made in the community while active in church affairs, and being a member of the Holy Rosary Ladies Altar Society.
