Eleanor Koenig Schmoll, 87, died November 17, following a devastating stroke 
the early evening before. Eleanor had lived in Lamont, California for the last 
five years. She was born March 5, 1917, in Marshfield, Wisconsin. She was the 
baby of nine surviving brothers and sisters, and the only one who ever moved 
out of Marshfield. She came to Merced, California in 1942, and married Joe 
Schmoll, in 1943. She was the mother of J.J. (Jerry), born in 1944, an 
electrical inspector for the state of Washington, and John, born in 1957, the 
Pastor of Saint Augustine Catholic Church, in Lamont.

Eleanor lived in Merced for about 57 years. During that time she was a 
bookkeeper for Ferrero Electric, Mer-Cal Electric and, in her retirement, for 
the Catholic Churches of Merced. All together, between Marshfield and Merced, 
she was a bookkeeper for over 64 years. A lifelong Roman Catholic, she had a 
special love for the seminarians and priests that were assigned to Merced over 
the years.

She was preceded in death by her husband of 37 years, Joe, on July 22, 1980, 
as well as her nine brothers and sisters who survived birth. She is survived 
by her two sons, J.J. and his wife, Susan, and Fr. John. She is also survived 
by her two grandsons, Jack and his wife, Joyce, and Tim. She was also the 
great-grandmother to Jack and Joyces two children, Sophia and August (Gus).

The family would like to thank Dr. Anthony Valdez and the wonderful doctors 
and nurses at the Mercy Hospital (Bakersfield) Emergency Room, where they took 
such kindly care of Eleanor during the last hours of her life. The family 
would especially like to thank two very special people in Eleanors life: 
Alejandrina Gonzalez and Josefina Rodriguez. There were like daughters to her.
