unice Sievert, age 95, of Appleton, formerly of Black Creek, passed away on June 20, 2023, with her loving family at her side. She was born in Tigerton, WI at the family-owned bakery on June 13, 1928 to the late Adella (Klug) and Carl Mauthe. Eunice married Daryl Sievert on May 19, 1951. The couple enjoyed 43 years together until Daryl's passing on May 31, 1994. Eunice resided in Black Creek until moving to Appleton in 1996. Eunice and Daryl were successful business owners of Black Creek Oil Company and Eunice was a private piano teacher until the age of 90. Eunice was a gifted pianist and it brought her delight to share her love of music with her students and family. Eunice was the organist at St. Mary's Catholic Church in Black Creek for over 30 years. She played for weddings, funerals, school events and occasionally with the Ray Rice Orchestra. She received her training at the Lawrence Conservatory of Music. Eunice cherished the cottage on Kelly Lake where many happy memories were made with her husband, family, and best friend Eileen Adams. Often Eunice, her "favorite" sister Jean Adamski, and Eileen could be seen pontooning together on the lake. Eunice was an avid traveler and often went on adventures with her family. Eunice enjoyed sharing stories with her family about the days while she was growing up: having to cross the street to pump water for her folks' bakery in Black Creek; cold mornings where she and her sister Jean's breath caused frost on their quilt; sitting on her mother or dad's lap and steering the car while driving to Shiocton to deliver bakery and swimming in the Wolf River to cool off on a hot summer day before returning to Black Creek; taking her bath behind the warm bakery proof box on cold winter Saturday nights; hobos from the nearby train coming to the back door of the bakery looking for day old bread which her dad always provided; and in her teenage years climbing the Black Creek water tower with her cousin Shirley Klug; and her school friends saying they wanted to sit by her because she smelled like donuts, but she wanted to smell like perfume.
Eunice is survived by her children: Randy (Char) Sievert, Jodie (Mike Endres) Gagnow Endres; sister: Jean Adamski; brother-in-law: Veryle "Red" (Virgie) Sievert; grandchildren: Sam (Pauline) Gagnow, Jered (Ashley) Gagnow, Jodell (Ken Platten) Gagnow, Christie (Jason) Knox, Scott Endres, Liz (Justin) Olson, Chuck (Erica) Sievert; great grandchildren: Kendal and Hunter; Caitlyn; Zayd; Patrick, Phillip and Annaleigh; Carter, Gavin and Ele; and Roger and Sally.
