Nancy died peacefully on Monday, March 11, 2019 at St. John’s Lutheran Community after a courageous battle with cancer. She was born on April 2, 1945, in Shawano, WI, the daughter of Carl and Dorothy (Schultz) Haut. Nancy attended a one room school, then St. James Lutheran School and graduated from Shawano Senior High School. It is in high school she met her soul mate Ronald Timm. They were married on December 17, 1966, at St. James Lutheran Church in Shawano. They made Albert Lea their home in 1967. Nancy’s first priority was making a loving home for her family. She also had worked for a short time at AAL in Appleton, WI, typed for a court reporter in Albert Lea, and was a lunch lady at Hawthorne School. She found a job she loved and worked for District #241 as a secretary first at Brookside School and later at Southwest. She retired in 2010 after 20 years with the district. Nancy was strong in her faith and a longtime member of Zion Lutheran Church, where she had been active in the LWML Mission Society, the Ladies Society and Ruth Circle. In addition to the joy she got from spending time with her grandchildren, Nancy also enjoyed quilting, cooking, baking, gardening and canning. Nancy will be greatly missed by her husband Ron, children: Steven (Julie )Timm of Cedar Falls, Iowa, John (Toni) Timm of Albert Lea, and Julie Timm of Forest Lake, MN; grandchildren: Joshua, Hannah Aleah and Sarah Timm, Jake and Shelby Mindrup; sisters: Shirley (Don) Bowe of Manitowoc, WI, Jean (Dan) Schott of Shawano, WI; brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law: Tom Stachura of Pulaski, WI, Jerry and Terrie Timm of Shawano, WI, Betty and Dave Laatsch of Tigerton, WI and many nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her parents Carl and Dorothy Haut, father-in-law and mother-in-law Edward and Dorothy Timm and a sister Debra Stachura. Nancy had a courageous, loving spirit and was always willing to give of herself for others. Blessed be her memory.
