    • Louis Seegers, age 92, passed away at Brewster Village early on Saturday morning, July 6, 2013. Louis was born in Darboy on March 19, 1921, son of the late John and Marie (Vanden Wyngaard) Seegers. Over the years, Louis was involved in a variety of careers. He was in the restaurant and bar business in Green Bay, Appleton, Chilton, and Hilbert; he worked as a driver for the New Hope Center in Chilton; and also worked as a maintenance supervisor at the Chilton High School for twenty years. He loved horse racing, playing cards, visiting the casino, and telling stories. During World War II, he served his country as a member of the United States Army.

      Louis was married to Florence Schmidt, and together the couple had two sons. Later, he married Gladys Owen, and the family grew larger. In July of 1987, he married Catherine Buchinger Popp, and the roots of his family tree grew once again. He is survived by his wife: Catherine Seegers of Kimberly; four sons: Roger (Connie) Seegers of Appleton; Wayne (Janice) Seegers of Fremont; Scott (Judy) Owen of Santa Cruz, California; and Stephen (Beverly) Owen of Hilbert.
