(nee Bayer), age 95, was reunited with beloved husband, John on June 17, 2023 at age 95. She was born October 25, 1927 to Katharina and Andreas Bayer in Mucsi, Hungary, an ethnic German settlement. There at an early age she learned the values of hard work and strength of family. She married John in 1946, in the last wedding in the village before Mucsi residents were expelled to Germany. After 6 years in Germany, where they had daughters Helena Curtain (Tony) and Veronica Sloan (Steve Ewing), they emigrated to the USA as displaced persons. After a short stay in Texas, they moved to Milwaukee where they were reunited with relatives and friends from their Hungarian village. In Milwaukee they had sons Wally (Linda) and Peter (Laurel). Elisabeth and John valued family and friends and were active in the Mucsi Family Club. Elisabeth was known for her hard work, her good cooking and her many humorous anecdotes. She was the unflagging family matriarch for the past 30 years. She is missed by her children, her sister Veronica de Ramírez, her grandchildren, great-grandchildren, nieces and nephews in the USA and in Colombia, and all her relatives and friends.
The family would like to thank all the wonderful caregivers at The Arboretum Assisted Living Facility and VITAS Healthcare.
Visitation will be from 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM on Saturday, July 15th at St. Anthony Catholic Church, N74W13604 Appleton Avenue, Menomonee Falls, WI with Mass of Christian Burial to follow at 12:00 PM. Entombment at Wisconsin Memorial Park in Brookfield.
