Eunice Prottsman

May 1, 1928 — November 27, 2016

Eunice Prottsman, 88, lifetime Venango area resident, passed away November 27, 2016 at the Golden Ours Convalescent Home in Grant, with family by her side.

Eunice was born May 1, 1928 on the Behrens farm in Sedgwick County, Colorado northwest of Venango. She was the second of two children born to Albert and Martha Behrens. Eunice attended HiLine Country School. She later attended Venango High School, graduating in 1946.

Eunice married Wayne Prottsman, her high school sweetheart, on May 8, 1947 in Holyoke. Four children were born to this union.

Eunice lived her whole life in the Venango area, moving to their farm south of town in 1953. She was very active in the church and was a Sunday school teacher for quite a number of years. Eunice was a farm wife, with all that that entails. She was an avid reader and enjoyed writing, rhyming "ditties," or making up riddles for any family gathering. Shortly after a fire destroyed their home in 2010 Eunice and Wayne moved to Westview in Grant, with Eunice moving into Golden Ours in 2011.

Eunice was preceded into eternal life by her husband of 64 years; her parents; son Rory; grandson, Wesley Prottsman; sister, Leota Burns; all of her brothers-in-law and 1 sister-in-law.

Eunice is survived by her children, Ron (Mary Fran) of Panama City Beach, FL, Linda (Dan) Winchell of North Platte, Marlon (Barb) of Imperial; 3 grandchildren, Tonya (Chris) Warneke of York, Jeremy Reimer of Jefferson, SD, Whitney (Laura) Prottsman of New Orleans, LA; 2 great grandchildren who were the light of her life, Ally and Sammy Warneke of York; along with many other relatives and friends.
