of her life, Frank Yunker, on February 10, 1973, in

immediate family.

Springfield, Illinois. Hedy worked for Franklin Life
in Springfield before going to work at
Cutler-Hammer/Eaton Corp. She retired from Eaton
Corp after working there for close to 40 years. |
Hedy and Frank were avid animal
lovers especially their dogs named “Jack”. Hedy did
not know a stranger. She had a smile that could
light up a room and her laughter was contagious. She
was loved and will be missed by all who knew her.

Logan County or the donor’s choice. Hedy’s body was
