Shared note

Beatrice Coenen, 91, De Pere, died peacefully with family by her side on December 2, 2016. Beatty was born on February 4, 1925 in De Pere to Napoleon and Barbara Gerarden. On January 6, 1947 she married Herbert Coenen, the love of her life, and they were together for almost 64 years. No matter what words we choose, they will be insufficient to adequately describe who this wonderful woman was. She loved life, and cared deeply for people. Beatty was a compassionate, patient, generous person who always put others ahead of herself. She was a humble, gentle soul and was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend. She taught us all so much about life and how to be better people just by the example she set. So many people were blessed by her heartfelt care and concern. Filled with hospitality, whenever someone was in need, she was ready, offering her help which included her best-you-ever-tasted homemade meals and gourmet desserts. Beatty will be VERY sadly missed by us all. There is a big heart-shaped hole missing in our lives now. But we rejoice with her that she gets to see the God of her faith face to face. Beatrice is survived by three of her children: Gary H (Bev) Coenen, Suamico; Ron (Judy) Coenen, De Pere; Dawn (Joie) Kampen, De Pere; son-in-law, Jim Lasee, Bellingham, WA; ten cherished grandchildren and ten great-grandchildren: Tiffany (Chris) Sanders and their children Lauren, Anna and Mary; Graham (Erika) Lasee and their children Ella and Kayson; Melissa (Ty) Little and their children Teddy and Elliott; Melissa Lantz; Matt Coenen; Jacob Kampen; Jed (Bria) Kampen and their children Haddon and baby on the way; Lena (Kaidon) Hempton; Luke Kampen; Shane (Dee) Wolford and their daughter MyKenzie. Further survived by her sister Hazel Van De Ven, sisters-in-law Rosie Bartels and Millie Coenen, and brother-in-law Clarence Coenen. Also survived by numerous special nieces and nephews, and dear friend, Jenny Smith. Beatrice was preceeded in death by her parents, her husband Herb, two of their children Randy Coenen and Cindy Lasee, her sisters Dorothy Gerarden and Margie Forsythe, brothers Don Gerarden and Barney (Pat) Gerarden, and brothers-in-law Art Van De Ven, Louis Coenen, Fritz (Eleanor) Coenen, Joe Bartels; sister-in-law Fran Coenen, Helen (Norb) Achten, Agatha (Leo) Albers, Florence (Sam) Boyea and Caroline (Ray) Lisch, and niece Cathy Van De Ven. Friends may call at Our Lady of Lourdes Parish Family, 1307 Lourdes Avenue, De Pere, from 9:00am until 10:30am on Tuesday, December 6, 2016. Mass of Christian Burial will be held at 10:30 am on Tuesday at the church with Father Tim Shillcox, O.Praem. officiating. Interment will be at Mt. Calvary Cemetery. The family wishes to thank Dr. Rank for his great care over the years; to the AseraCare Hospice team and Kayla for her kind and tender care; and to Nancy, JoAnn, and each and every one of the caring staff at Artisan Assisted Living for their care during her stay there, not only as caregivers but many of whom had become friends.
