Obituary for Frances Helen Behlmann (Henke)

Frances H. Behlmann , 93, died peacefully on February 23, 2015, after a long and happy life. She was preceded in death by her husband of 66 years, Joseph R. Behlmann and her parents Henry and Mary (Keeven) Henke. She is survived by seven children, Sister Jane Behlmann CSJ, Carol (Gary) Pohlmann, Judy Steinmeyer, LouAnn (Rick) Randall, Joe Behlmann Jr, Debbie Morrow and Greg Behlmann. Dear grandmother to Shelly, Tina, Mike, Monica, Nikki, Jeff, Nathan, Jason, Megan, Matt, Josh, Courtney, Joe III, Becky and Ricky. She is also survived by 27 great-grandchildren. Frances was preceded in death by her 12 brothers and sisters, Catherine, Henry, Lawrence, Agnes (S. Alphonsine), Gertrude, Clara, Mary, Alphonse, Mildred, August, Leonard and Anne. Dear sister-in-law, aunt and friend.

Frances was devoted to her family. She and Joe loved travel and nature, and their children have fond memories of camping trips to many state and national parks. After their transfer to Springfield, MO they retired to the farm they had always dreamed of, where they gardened and raised cattle. Their happiest times were when their many grandchildren and great-grandchildren enjoyed time at the farm playing in the hay loft, having hay rides, bonfires, sleigh riding and fishing. Mom was the heart of our family. She is dearly loved and will be greatly missed.

Visitation in Springfield, MO will be from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. Thursday February 26, 2015 in Herman H. Lohmeyer Funeral Home, 500 E. Walnut St. Springfield, MO.

Visitation in Florissant, MO will be at Sacred Heart Catholic Church on Saturday, February 28, 2015, 9:00 a.m. until time of funeral Mass at 10:00 a.m. Interment to follow at Sacred Heart Cemetery in Florissant, MO.
