Obituary for Lavonne L. Engelhart
Lavonne Lucille Engelhart, age 78, a resident of Frederic, WI passed away peacefully on November 7, 2015 surrounded by her family at Frederic Nursing and Rehab.

Lavonne was born on January 1, 1937 to Leonard and Lucille Siverling in Cornell, WI. Lavonne graduated from Cornell High School and attended college in Eau Claire where she met the love of her life, James. They married on August 27, 1955 in Bloomer, WI - celebrating their 60th Wedding Anniversary this summer.

Lavonne held many jobs during her life. In 1975 she started working as bookkeeper at the Frederic Farmers Union and was promoted to Manager in 1978. She kept books for Pilgrim Lutheran Church and was the Clerk for the Town of Daniels for 24 years. Lavonne worked 26 years at Yellow River Supply until her retirement. But the job she loved the most was being a Grandmother.
