Lanore Hermina Imm
(March 10, 1931– May 17, 2024)
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Lanore Hermina Imm, a cherished mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, aunt, and friend, on May 17, 2024, in Weston, WI, at the age of 93.
Lanore is survived by her devoted children, Bruce (Patricia) Imm of Cotopaxi, CO, Keith (Susan) Imm of Weston, WI, Noreen (Arvid) Hall of Duncanville, TX, and Wendy (John) Klimcak of Colorado Springs, CO, as well as her fourteen grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her beloved husband Otto, son Kent, grandsons Zebulon and Roy, and her sister Juan, who now welcome her into heavenly peace.
At the tender age of 14, Lanore met the love of her life, Otto Imm, shortly before he joined the Navy and served our country during World War II. Upon his return, they married and embarked on a journey together that lasted 11 days short of 75 wonderful years.
While raising five children, Lanore worked as an assistant cook at Maine Elementary School in Maine, WI. Through her hard work and dedication, she earned a promotion to head cook and found joy in serving the students and providing them with healthy, hearty meals.
In her precious free time, Lanore could often be found at Trinity Lutheran Church in Wausau, WI attending service, preparing meals, cleaning, helping with church bazaars, or sharing laughter with the pastors. Her children fondly recall how their father would patiently wait in the church parking lot on Sundays after service as Lanore made her rounds among the members.
Lanore’s life was marked by her ability to listen, her hearty laugh, and her love for a good hug. She always had a kind word and a ready smile for everyone she met earning her the award for “Friendliest Resident” even in her later years as a resident at Pride TLC. Lanore will be deeply missed by all who knew her. Her legacy of love, faith, and kindness will live on in the hearts of her family and friends.
A visitation will be held Thursday, May 23, 2024 @ 9:00 am – 11:00 am at Trinity Lutheran Church. The funeral service will follow immediately after the visitation at 1100 am at the same location, with Pastor Jim Mayland officiating.
