Marlys Rae Mayenschein was born on April 30, 1942 in the Town of Butler, rural Thorp, to Curtis J. and Laura A. (Butler) Mayenschein. She was raised on the family farm, attended grade school in the Town of Butler, and graduated from Greenwood High School in 1960. She then went to work as a waitress at the Dairy Bar and Thorpedo Restaurant, both in Thorp. Marlys met Francis V. Andruszkiewicz, and they were united in marriage on April 8, 1961 at St. Hedwig Catholic Church in Thorp. They raised their family in Thorp, where they lived and farmed for many years, retiring in 2004.
Marlys had many interests, but especially enjoyed playing cards, gardening, canning, crafting/sewing, bowling, and cooking. But most of all, she enjoyed spending time with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She was well known for being a joyful person and her knack for all children. If there was a child to be found in a room, you could leave it to her to seek them out and try to snuggle with them. Her caring demeanor is one of the many things that will be missed by all.
She will be dearly missed by her husband, Francis, of Thorp; two daughters: Pamela (Richard) Hempleman of Thorp, Gail Andruszkiewicz (significant other, Mel Lorenz) of Thorp; five grandchildren: Patrick (Kristin) Hempleman, Deanna Abramczak, Jason (Jennifer) Leonard, Sarah (Loren) Gulcynski, Jesse Leonard; 11 great-grandchildren: Bradley, Riley, Mackenzie, Ashlyn, Tanner, Taylon, Emma, Logan, Sammy, Bryce, and Alyssa; two brothers: Norman (Rita) Mayenschein of Greenwood, and David (Marilyn) Mayenschein of Thorp; two sisters: Mary Lynn (Matt) Grajkowski of Thorp, and Carol (Doug) Bottlemy of Withee; two brothers-in-law: Marion (Sheila) Andruszkiewicz and Louis Andruszkiewicz, both of Thorp; many nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends.
Marlys was preceded in death by her parents; one brother, Leland Mayenschein; one niece, Sherri Hughes, four sisters-in-law: Sharon Mayenschein, Judy Bauer-Mayenschein, Marie Andruszkiewicz Peetz, Karen Andruszkiewicz; and one brother-in-law: Leo Andruszkiewicz.
