Lenora Ann Skaife Heilmann passed away on Wednesday, Dec. 29, 2021, surrounded by family and her beloved companion, Daisy Mae. 

She was born Nov. 25, 1931, to John Manley Skaife and Mildred Anna Turner Skaife. Lenora attended Lancaster School. She married Robert Heil-mann, June 10, 1950. To this union, three sons were born: Charles, Terry and Douglas. They later divorced. She worked at 3M, retiring with 22 years of service. Lenora was very artistic and talented. She enjoyed drawing and painting, planting and watching her flowers grow. She never saw a flower she didn’t love. Another pastime she enjoyed very much was going to the casino and, years ago, to the dog track. She also enjoyed most of the game shows on TV. Lenora loved to dance. 

Surviving Lenora are her sons Charles (Linda) Cobb and Douglas (Vicki) Heilmann of Monona, Iowa, daughter-in-law, Donna Heilmann of Prairie du Chien; grandchildren, Amy Kendall (Allen Zirk) and Nathan (Rita) Heilmann of Montfort, Lisa Heilmann (Mike Brown) of Mt.

Also surviving Lenora are her sister-in-law Leola Skaife; a very special significant other and best friend, Aubrey Blackburn of Fennimore; her beloved companion, Daisy Mae; and many, many nieces and nephews.
