Interment will follow at Grinter Cemetery, 7819 Swartz Road, KCK. Mildred was born on June 6, 1920. She grew up in Kansas City, KS and graduated from Wyandotte High School in 1937. She married Edward "Lawrence" Hoegler in 1940 and celebrated 62 years of marriage until his death in January of 2003. She was a long-time member of St. Rose of Lima Parish and St. Anthony Parish. She served as PTA president and librarian for St. Rose of Lima school and treasurer of the Carpenters Local Womens Auxiliary for many years and volunteered in the office of Bishop Ward High School. She and her husband volunteered for the American Red Cross for 47 years and Cancer Action of Kansas City for over 30 years. Mildred is survived by her daughter and caregiver, Christine Evans, of Cross Plains, TX; Rose Branson and husband Les, of Whitewright, TX; Catherine Wilane and husband Larry, of Blue Springs, MO; and Michelle Kaiser and husband Jim, of Cross Plains, TX. She is pre-deceased by a son, Lawrence "Larry" Hoegler. She is survived by eight grandchildren, numerous great grandchildren, and several great-great grandchildren. Mildred liked to play Scrabble and could be found at the Cross Plains Senior Center enjoying game night well into her mid-90s. She was an avid reader and was sometimes seen sweeping the sidewalk in front of the Cross Plains Public Library as a volunteer or sitting in the swings out front when the weather was nice. She was an excellent seamstress and quilter and enjoyed cheering for her Kansas City Royals and Kansas City Chiefs. This past summer she celebrated her 99th birthday as Grand Marshal of the Cross Plains Barbarian Festival Parade. In her later years, her fondest wish was to live to be one hundred years old. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Cross Plains Emergency Medical Services, P O Box 597, Cross Plains, TX 76443.
