Kathleen M. Hinz was born to eternal life on August 13, 2022 at the age of 62 years.

She was preceded in death by her parents Francis K. Nelson and Rose M.(Adameak) Nelson as well as her brother Richard Nelson.

She is survived by her loving and dedicated son Michael (Katie) Hinz, her nephew Nicholas Nelson and her loving cousins Marcie (Frank) Adameak-Mijango and Sheila Adameak. She is also survived by her dear friends Marisue Krutina-Bondowski and Joseph Bondowski.

Kathleen will always be remembered for her compassionate, caring, and free-spirited nature. She was often ready with a goofy joke and was known for her great sense of humor. She could be found with a book in her hands most of the day as she was an avid reader her whole life. Kathleen loved to use her creative mind in her many beloved hobbies such as cooking, gardening, and arts and crafts. Her sweet and caring spirit will live on in those she was surrounded by.

The family would like to extend a special thank you to the kind and caring staff at Maple Ridge Rehabilitation Center, St. Luke's Medical Center, and West Allis Memorial Hospital. Thank you for your dedicated care.
