Obituary

Eva P. Bromley, 99, of Jump River, WI passed away peacefully on Tuesday, July 30, 2013 at the Ladysmith Care Community in Ladysmith, WI. She was preceded in death by her husband, John, daughters; Louise Bahr and Kathleen Musiedlak, son; Fr. Vincent Bromley, and infant great-grandson Jeremy Sturtevant.

She is the beloved mother of J. Jerome (Dorothy Wernig) of Ft. Pierce, Fl, Mary Ann Olson of Ladysmith, Margaret (Edward) Jedinak of Hartland, WI, Dennis of Owen, WI, Roger (Margaret) of Brown Deer, WI, Colin of Normal, IL, Paula of Jump River, and Rita (Peter) Hutchinson of Goode, VA, 23 grandchildren, 32 great-grandchildren and 6 great-great-grandchildren and nephew Francis Franzen and family.

Eva was born May 15, 1914 in Iowa Falls, IA. Her family moved to Jump River when she was four years old. Eva was the fith child born to Michael and Anna Franzen. She outlived her sisters; Isabella Schueller, infant Clara, Agnes Johnson, and Lucille Hoehn, and her brothers; Valery, Lawrence and Cyril Franzen.

Eva graduated from Pioneer Grade School in the Town of McKinley and McDonell High School in Chippewa Falls, WI. She worked for a short time at St. Mary's Hospital in Ladysmith and St. Joseph's Hospital in Chippewa Falls. On April 10, 1934 she married John Bromley, and lived on their farmstead in the Town of McKinley for most of the rest of her life.

Her life of 99 years was a rich heritage of endurance and twentieth century change. Her Catholic upbringing offered tradition and a love for reading. The Depression made her frugal and resilient. She valued half-price sales and flowers in her vegetable garden. She was the devoted matriarch of her large family. Eva enjoyed reading, gardening, traveling with John, keeping up with the news, but most of all, being around her large family.

A Celebration of her life will be held on Sunday, August 4, 2013 at Nash-Jackan Funeral Home in Ladysmith from 2:00 PM until time of prayer service at 4:00 PM and again from 10:30 AM until the Mass of Christian Burial at 11:00 AM on Monday, August 5, at St. Michael's Church in Jump River. Interment will follow at Mt. Nebo cemetery in Jump River.
