Carol Janssen Obituary

Carol worked for Kimberly Clark in Kimberly and later in Neenah. She loved going "up north" to the Shangrila on Roberts Lake with her grandchildren and great grandchildren, listening to all the giggling upstairs when they should have been sleeping. A close second to family was her love of chocolate!

Carol was preceded in death by her parents; a brother, James Bouressa; brothers-in-law: Noel Vanden Heuvel, Les, Don, Orville, and Roman Janssen, Dave West, and Larry Schnabl; sisters-in-law: Bernice, Agnes, and Marlene Janssen, and Marianne Schnabl.
Funeral services will be held at 12:00 noon on Saturday, January 16, 2016, at St. John Nepomucene Catholic Church, 323 S. Pine Street, Little Chute, with Msgr. Jim Vanden Hogen officiating.
