Beatrice Ann Schaller, 90, of Millington, died on December 7, 2021 at Methodist Hospital North. She was raised in Tomah, Wisconsin and married her high school sweetheart, Leo Schaller, there on December 9, 1950. She served 27 years by his side as a Navy wife, and was called upon as OMBUDSMAN and advisor to the junior wives in his squadrons and duty stations all over the world. Along the way she gave him Francis Anthony, Constance, and Teresa, to whom she was a beloved mother and friend. Beatrice had been a communicant at St. William Catholic Church where she was a past president of the Women’s Club, managed the alter linens, and was in the Knights of Columbus auxiliary. She also participated in the Millington Kiwanis chapter, supporting their many community endeavors. Beatrice had the gift of gab and never met a stranger. She enjoyed traveling with her husband – especially to Disney World; and the two of them were such perfect dance partners, they could have won Dancing With The Stars (one of her favorite TV programs). She is survived by her children, grandchildren Christian, Christine, Mary, Rebecca, and Robert Jr., her great grandchildren, Jordan, Brionna, Amber, Kionna, Ocean, and Stella, as well as her great grandchildren Alton, Hailey, and Elijah. We celebrate her rewards in Heaven and return to her beloved husband, family, and friends who have gone before her, in the certainty we will see her again one day.
