Grace Marie (Much) (Schultz) Heimbruch, age 88 of New London, passed away on Tuesday, November 18, 2025 at St. Joseph Residence surrounded by her loved ones.  Grace was born July 9, 1937 in the Town of Little Creek to the late Leonard and Olga (Hintz) Much.  She married Everett Heimbruch on November 11, 2011 in Northport.  From early on, Grace worked on the family farm.  She also worked for Sturm Foods until her retirement. Her most treasured job was being a mother and grandmother – nothing brought her more joy!  She always made sure everyone left her house with a full belly of food.  Grace also loved tending to her garden, playing solitaire and working on puzzles.  She was a hard worker, often times working all day long and then coming home to take care of her family and friends.

Grace is survived by her children, Deborah (Don) Schuelke, Steven Schultz, Mark (Kris) Schultz, Joseph Schultz, Troy (Arlene) Schultz, Matthew (Laurie) Schultz and Kevin Schultz; numerous grandchildren, great-grandchildren, great-great-grandchildren, brothers, nieces, nephews, cousins, other relatives and friends.

In addition to her parents, Grace was preceded in death by her husband, Everett; daughter, Vickie (Gary) Werth; grandson, Carl; brother, Ronald Much; sister, Nancy Bartel and her first husband.

A Celebration of Grace's Life will be held at a later date.

The family wishes to thank the staff at St. Joes; ThedaCare At Home Hospice, especially Luke, Heidi and Julie and the staff at Theda Clark in Neenah.
