Monica Ann Haeusler
December 18, 1930 – July 9, 2025
Monica was born to Elizabeth and Herbert Meyer on December 18, 1930. She was raised on a farm as part of a large family. She married Alphonse Haeusler on October 15, 1952. She and Alphonse raised six children while operating a trucking business and a mixed farm. They enjoyed fishing, hunting, road trips, playing cards, and being with their children and grandchildren. They also had many happy times at their cabin at Candle Lake. Alphonse passed away just short of their 50th wedding anniversary. After his passing, Monica moved into Wolverine Heights where she resided for many years. She most recently moved to St. Mary’s Villa, where she lived for two months until her passing. She was very talented: sewing, crocheting, knitting, bookkeeping, cooking, baking, and a farm hand. She was a resilient hardworking lady, and a positive happy person and always worried about you instead of herself. She adapted to everything that was thrown at her, including blindness, cancer, multiple surgeries, and loss of many loved ones. The family would like to thank everyone for their kindness and caring, and especially Monica’s great friend, Ruth Britz.
