    • Alverne (Ellie) Broeren passed into the arms of her Heavenly Father on October 17, 2016, with her loving husband and family at her side. Waiting to greet her were her two special angels Margie and Mike Broeren.

      Ellie was born on June 3, 1931 to the late Lester and Cora (Arts) Eiting. On November 28, 1950 Ellie married the love of her life, Paul Broeren at St. Francis Catholic Church in Hollandtown. This began a love story that has set an example for all of their family and touched the hearts of many. Paul and Ellie made many happy memories over the years. They shared a special smile and deep respect and affection for each other. They loved to dance- especially to polka music. In their home in Sherwood- polka music could be heard every Sunday.

      They worked hard to raise a wonderful family of eight men. Apple picking, cherry picking, canning and cooking- it was a busy household and Ellie was an amazing wife and mother. Ellie sewed many of her clothes and the boy’s clothes. Each of the gentlemen in her household were the proud owners of a leisure suit which she sewed in the fashion of that time.

      Ellie was a great cook. People were always welcome- many Sundays a large pot of Chili was heating on the stove. Every week Ellie made homemade bread and many delicious desserts including her famous Apple Cake which to this day is a favorite of all of her sons.

      She also crocheted for many years and every child, grandchild and great grandchild has a special blanket crocheted by her loving hands. You can feel her hugs as you wrap that blanket about you.

      When Paul retired they starting wintering in Texas. They made many trips to Mexico and brought lots of treasures home to friends and family. Their Texas “family “ became very special to them and they continued to gather with them and visit whenever they could. They traveled to many places including three trips to the Yukon where Ellie and Paul reunited with Broeren relatives. They traveled throughout the United States as well as Hong Kong, Germany and Holland. Always up for an adventure, Ellie especially loved her Hot Air Balloon ride and her elephant ride. They owned a small cottage in Bear Lake when the kids were younger and later purchased a small home on Bear Lake. Bear Lake was a beautiful spot that they enjoyed whether it was just the two of them or with family and friends.

      Everywhere that Ellie and Paul went they made friends.

      Paul and Ellie shared a deep commitment to their Catholic faith and attended mass every Sunday and Holy Day. While living in Sherwood they were both active at Sacred Heart Parish. They stayed connected throughout the years- rarely missing a Parish picnic.

      Ellie is survived by her loving husband Paul Broeren and seven of her sons: Karl (Mary) Broeren, Northwood ND; Jim (Bev) Broeren, Sherwood, WI; Dale (Marcia) Broeren, Neenah WI; Roy (Cathy) Broeren, San Jose, CA; David(Sandy) Broeren, Kaukauna, WI; Chuck (Sue) Broeren, Kaukauna, WI; and John (Laurie) Broeren, Hilbert, WI.

Paul and Ellie had eleven great grandchildren.
