Patricia A. Henning
Patricia A. Henning, age 70 of Shawano, passed away Friday, May 25, 2007 in Appleton, after a courageous battle with ALS (Lou Gehrig’s Disease).
Patti was born on Feb. 27, 1937 in the Town of Seneca, the daughter of the late Everett and Alfricena (Schreiber) Maas. On Oct. 3, 1959 she married James Henning. Jim preceded her in death on Nov. 4, 2002. She was a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and served in the Relief Society, plus many other church organizations. She had been a church organist for more than 40 years. She was Sealed on Aug. 28, 1967 in the Salt Lake City Temple. Patti loved to garden, butterflies and birds. She enjoyed working in her yard and was very possessive of her riding lawn mower. She was an avid Packer fan. She was also dedicated to her job at All American Mineral Company. However, her greatest joy was her grandchildren.

She was preceded in death by her parents, a brother and sister, father-in-law Gilbert Henning, sister-in-law Hazel Maas and brother-in-law Gregg Januszewski.
Funeral services will be held at noon on Tuesday, May 29, 2007 at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints in Shawano, with Bishop Craig Hoffman officiating.
