Eliotte Shane Heinz was called home to Heaven on July 20, 2025. Eliotte was born to Shane and Amber (Faskell) Heinz on June 8, 2003. She was a proud and loving big sister to her brother Brett and sister Hayden. We love and miss her desperately.

Eliotte's dog Boone was her heart. They shared the same birthday, which was Eliotte's sign that they were meant for each other. They could often be found waling through the neighborhood. Boone misses her greatly.

Eliotte enjoyed exercising, golf, skiing, music, talking, fishing, hunting, vacationing up north, and family movie nights. Her favorite things were spending time with friends and family.

Eliotte graduated from Hortonville High School in 2021 and UW Stevens Point in 2024. She was attending graduate school at Viterbo University, working on her master's degree in Mental Health Counseling. She would have been an amazing counselor and advocate.

Eliotte made friends everywhere she went. She always had a smile and a kind word for everyone. She was a smart, funny, energetic, happy, and loving girl, who brought laughter and joy to everyone who was blessed to know her.

She was preceded in death by her Grandfather Dennis Heinz, her Grandfather John Faskell, and her Aunt Sheena Faskell.

She is survived by her parents Shane and Amber, her brother Brett,  sister Hayden, Grandmother Sue Rothe, Grandmother Elizabeth Faskell, Uncle Dennis (Kendal) Heinz, Aunt Tanya (Chad) Robertshaw, Uncle Paxton (Stacy) Faskell, and Uncle Pace (Danielle) Faskell. She is further survived by her cousins Kindra, Russhell, Trace, Alexis, Cameron, Pierce, Johanna, Ezra, and extended family.

The Funeral Mass for Eliotte will be held at 12:00 p.m. on Saturday, August 16, 2025 at St. Mary of the Immaculate Conception Church in Greenville, Wisconsin. The visitation will be held at the church from 8:00 a.m. until the time of service.

Eliotte's family would like to thank the community members, friends, and family who supported the search efforts and surrounded Eliotte and her family with love and prayers. Your kindness was astounding. We would also like to thank the LaCrosse Police Department and Search & Rescue teams for their dedication and timeless efforts to find our beautiful girl. Lastly, thank you to Viterbo University for all the support, prayers, and love during this difficult time.

All of you will forever be in our hearts. Please carry our sweet Eliotte in yours.
