Eloise E. Bachara, age 80, of Coloma, Wisconsin went to be with the Lord on March 19, 2010. She was very peaceful.
Funeral services will be 6:00 p.m. on Friday, March 26, 2010 at the New Life Assembly of God in Plainfield, Wisconsin. Pastor Howard Kruize will officiate. Visitation will be 3:00 p.m. until the time of service on Friday at New Life Assembly of God.
Eloise was born November 22, 1929 in Des Moines, Iowa to Frank and Alice (Anderson) LaVia. She is survived by her sister, Cyn OBrien; daughters Neoma (Nick) Santucci, Jackie (Joe) Leonardi, Cindy, Donna (Jeff) Barr, and Michelle (Greg) Wise; son Ted (Deb); 10 grandchildren, numerous great-grandchildren, and one great-great granddaughter. She was preceded in death by brothers, Louie, Dove, and Jack, and nephew, Tommy OBrien.
She was the center of her family, treasured by all. She will be missed tremendously, as well as loved forever. Eloise had volunteered at a suicide prevention hotline as a venue to share her faith with others. She saw a need, wanted to help, sharing and caring for others to help lessen their burdens, while being a wonderful example of Gods love to shine through to others. She was also the leader of the Prayer Chain at her church, and was greatly devoted to this.
Though Eloise had battled her disease for years, she never once complained about it, but instead, always made time to encourage others, inspire them through her own strength and faith, was very patient, loving, kind, and generous to a fault. She was extremely compassionate and supportive right up until her last breath. This is simply how she lived her life; not wanting to worry anyone else, but to comfort and help everyone else.
Her life has been an incredible blessing to not just her family, but to her friends, and all who were fortunate enough to know her for any amount of time.
