Where Caring Is A Family Tradition
Georgia (Howman) Zehner, 67, of Larsen, Wisconsin, died Saturday, August 26, 2023, at home.
She was born August 20, 1956, to the late Dan and Vivian Howman. Georgia was a 1974 graduate of Winneconne High School. For 41 years she worked at Kimberly-Clark as a Senior Research Technician, and in her working career Georgia was named in numerous patents with her team. She was a member of Grace Lutheran Church, Winchester.
Georgia enjoyed traveling, especially to Door County, growing flowers, her pets, and spending time with her family; nieces and nephews, great-nieces and nephews, and great-great-nieces and nephews.
Georgia always made people feel special and loved, not only in her actions of warm hugs and kisses, but her words. She made the holidays and birthdays fun with all of her stories of the past, her laughter and jokes, all the gifts of sweet treats and creative decorating. She was an artistic, creative person who liked to have fun, but worked hard as well.
Georgia is survived by her brothers, David (Kay) Howman, of Hortonville; Paul (Marilyn) Howman, of Plymouth, Minnesota; nieces and nephews, Steve (Jane) Stoltenow, of Mountain; Sandy (Kevin) Van Campenhout, of Two Rivers; Lori (Tony) Hobbs, of New London; Cathie (Chris) Fellner, of Sturgeon Bay; Dan (Cheryl) Howman of Coon Rapids, Minnesota; Ann Marie (Travis) Theien, of Bennett, Wisconsin; great-nieces and great-nephews, Jennifer (Marc) Effinger, Mathew Stoltenow, Lexi and Samantha Van Campenhout, Talen and Emberly Hobbs, Caitlyn, Caralee, Cathryn and Cassidy Fellner, Daniel, Andrew, Matthew and Alex Howman, Bryant, Alli and Addison Theien; great-great niece and great-great-nephew, Layla and Lucas Effinger; other relatives and friends. Georgia is also survived by her special kitty, Marceline.
Along with her parents, Georgia was also preceded in death by her sister and brother-in-law, Barbara and Jerry Stoltenow; and a brother, Dannie Howman.
A visitation for family and friends will be on Saturday, September 2, 2023, from 9:00 to 11:00 a.m. at Grace Lutheran Church of Winchester, 8396 Steeple Hill Dr., Larsen. A funeral service will be held on Saturday at 11:00 a.m. at the church with Pastor Mark Laatsch officiating. Burial will follow in the Grace Lutheran Cemetery. Lunch to follow.

Yes, I remember Georgia's many patents, but I best remember her for her butter mint recipe. What a sweet heart.
