Marie C. Jacob

Marie C. Jacob entered into eternal rest as of Monday, November 16, 2015 at the age of 95. She was born in Appleton, Wisconsin, the daughter of the late Frank Jacob Jr. and Clara (Klausen) Jacob. She worked at The Zwicker Knitting Mill but spent most of her working years at American Can Company from which she retired. Marie never married because her true love Ross Glasheen was killed in The Battle of The Bulge in WWII. Marie had a beautiful voice and sang with the choirs at St. Mary Catholic Church and St. Bernard Catholic Church where she was a member for several years.

She is survived by her nieces and nephews, Patricia Jacob Hannemann of South Carolina, Marjorie Jacob Connors of Texas, James Jacob of Texas, Arthur Jacob of Texas, Paul Jacob of Texas, and Lynn Marie Jacob Scoby of Wisconsin.

She was preceded in death by her brothers Frank Jacob, III and Nicholas Jacob, sister-in-law Sedella (Dudek) Jacob and her best friend Lu Sturm.

The Funeral Liturgy for Marie will be held at 11:00 AM on Thursday, December 3, 2015 at ST. BERNARD CATHOLIC CHURCH (1617 W. Pine St., Appleton) with Fr. Dennis Ryan officiating. Visitation will be held directly at church from 10:00 AM until the time of mass.

The family would like to thank the care givers at Provence Terrace at Long Court for the excellent care that was provided to her.
