Josephine (Leiterman) Bielinski

Josephine Agnes Bielinski, age 84, passed away on Tuesday, April 10th, 2018.

Born March 17, 1934 to the late Louis and Ella (Hoffman) Leiterman in Glenmore, WI. On June 8th, 1955 she married Willard Bielinski and together they shared 63 years of marriage and raised three children. Over the years, Josephine spent time working at several jobs, retiring from the Brown County Publishing Co., after which she held her happiest position as Grandma taking care of and helping out babysitting with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She was also involved with the Christian Mothers Altar Society and American Legion Auxiliary and was a member of All Saints Catholic Church. In her leisure time, she enjoyed gardening, sewing and reading.

She is survived by her husband Willard; children: David (Jayme) Bielinski, Mike (Sue) Bielinski and Barb (Mike) Larsen; grandchildren: Brandon (special friend Christina) & Lyndsey Bielinski, Chad Bielinski, Emily (Kyle) Peterson, Derek Larsen, Ashley (Jared) Post and great grandchildren Daisy and Raymond Post. She is also survived by her siblings: Don (Dorothy) Leiterman and Dorothy (Gayle) Derricks; sister-in-law Deloros Doras and brother-in-law Lonnie (Marketta) Bielinski as well as many nieces and nephews.

Along with her parents and in-laws (John & Clara Bielinski), she was preceded in death by her siblings and their spouses: Alvin and Virginia Leiterman, Lorraine and Frank Sekora and in-laws Henry Doras, Bob and Viola Bielinski, Leo and Betty Malewiski and nephew John Bielinski.

It was her wish in life to live long enough to watch her children marry and have their own families and getting to enjoy her grandchildren and great-grandchildren and luckily she did all that.

Family and friends may visit at All Saints Catholic Church in Denmark on Saturday, April 14, from 9:00am until 10:45am. Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated at 11:00am with Fr. Kevin Ori officiating. Burial in the church cemetery. Cotter Funeral Home of Denmark is assisting the family.
