Dolores A. (Kaszynski) Hainzinger Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

The final note in the symphony of love and service comprising the life of Morris resident Dolores A. (Kaszynski) Hainzinger sounded early Easter Sunday, March 27, 2016 – days shy of her 81st birthday. Visitation is 9:30-10:45 a.m. Friday, April 1, 2016, at Immaculate Conception Church, 600 E. Jackson St., Morris, IL 60450. A Mass of Christian Burial will follow at 11 a.m. presided by the Rev. Fr. Edward J. Howe. Faith was a central theme in Dee’s life: A bedside visit from Father Ed weeks ago promoted her face to erupt in the most radiant glow and unbridled joy family who were there say they’ve ever seen. Her death at Agrace Hospice Care in Madison, Wis. concluded a complex four-month battle with illness yet Dee viewed death as a crescendo, or pinnacle, in her life, her family says, not a low point, for she believed faith affords a right to resurrection and life everlasting in the presence of her Lord. She was born in LaSalle, Ill. in spring 1935 to Roman and Anna (Dergance) Kaszynski. Her lifelong love of music found rhythm in the concert and marching bands at then-LaSalle-Peru-Oglesby High School in the late ‘40s and grew richer playing the flute and piccolo for community symphonies in Elgin (‘70s) and Kankakee (‘80s and ‘90s). High school also led Dee to Hillard Hainzinger, whom she married in November 1955. She earned a teaching certificate and taught briefly, then devoted herself to raising three children. Dee later enjoyed working as a telephone sales specialist for Sears Roebuck & Co. in Kankakee and bowling in women’s and mixed leagues at Gala Lanes in Bradley and Dandelles Lanes in Kankakee. She was an avid supporter of her kids’ and grandkids’ musical, athletic and artistic endeavors, as well as, four decades of Scouting activities. Dee returned to the classroom briefly as a volunteer tutor for grade school students in the late 90s. The longtime member of St. Joseph Catholic Church in Bradley recently attended Immaculate Conception in Morris. She is survived by sons Hillard “Bud” (whose wife is also named Dee) of Morris, Ill. and Scott (Beth) of Verona, Wis., grandchildren Nathaniel (Shana) Hainzinger of Seattle., Anna (John) Howard of Denver, Callie Hainzinger of Verona, Wis,. and Joshua Hainzinger of Milwaukee. Dee was preceded in death by a sister, her parents and in-laws, her husband, daughter Holly, grandson Ian, as well as, many beloved relatives in the LaSalle area. Family and friends fondly recall Dee’s devotion to loved ones, sharp sense of humor and ready laugh, along with her stoic indifference to pain and suffering. The family suggests memorials to Agrace HospiceCare, 5395 E. Cheryl Parkway, Madison, WI, 53711 (http://www.agrace.org/ ) or Immaculate Conception ( http://www.icmorris.org) .
