She survives him, along with their five children and their spouses: Michael and Patricia Heider, Oshkosh; Scott and Nicole Heider, Appleton; Kim and Steve Maertz, Greenville; Todd and Wendy Heider, Sheboygan Falls; and Tamara and Joel Schmeltzer, Appleton.

Sorry to hear about Randall's death. It sure was a shock. At least Randall didn't suffer, died peacefully.
