Nancy Ann

Schmidt

Nancy Ann Schmidt was called to the side of her Savior on Thursday, April 3.

She was born on January 28, 1946, in Watertown, WI, the daughter of the late Harry and Alice (Maahs) Schmidt. She grew up on a century farm west of Lake Mills and attended St John's (Newville) Ev. Lutheran Church and School for 8 years and graduated 2nd highest in her class from Lake Mills High School in 1964.

Nancy was a member of St John's (Newville) Ev. Lutheran Church and served as church organist for many years. Nancy taught piano lessons and after working at some businesses in the area her failing health led to her early retirement.

She enjoyed spending a lot of her time reading and cuddling with her cats and kittens, the most recent of which was "Kitty".   In 2006 Alice and Nancy sold the farm and moved into Lake Mills.  After Alice's death in 2008, caregivers helped every day to give Nancy the best life possible. Caregivers included Kathy Schmidt, Sandi Strich, Julie Foelker, Tina Dunkleberger, Isie Sears, and Joyce Kuhl.

Nancy is survived by her aunt, Judy Maahs, of DePere, WI and a number of cousins.

Graveside services will be held at 1:30 p.m. on Thursday, April 10, 2025, at the Rock Lake Cemetery.

Memorials to St. John Ev. Lutheran Church would be appreciated.
