Ella Marie Heiman was born on April 29, 1925, in rural Thorp to Andrew C. and Edith (Benzschawel) Heiman. She received her elementary education at area schools and graduated from Thorp High School in 1944. She was united in marriage to Allen L. Hubbard on Aug. 20, 1946, at St. Bernard's Catholic Church in Thorp.
Ella and Allen farmed in the Boyd area for a few years before moving to Thorp, where they farmed until retiring in 1980. After leaving the farm, they built a new home in Lombard Grove, rural Thorp, and lived there until Allen's death on June 30, 1988. Ella had many friends in the Mennonite community and one of her joys was the friendships she made while assisting them with transportation.
She is survived by her 12 children: Earl Hubbard, John (Joy) Hubbard, Royce (Karla) Hubbard, all of Thorp; William Hubbard of Stanley, Neil Hubbard of Fairchild, Ivan (Candace) Hubbard of Owen, Robert (Carol) Hubbard of Withee, Roger Hubbard of Black River Falls, Donna (Joe) Soborowicz of Montverde, Fla., Sandy (Ken) Engel of Owen, Bonnie Ross of Las Vegas, Nev., and Barb (Dale) Shulz of Edgar; 42 grandchildren, 15 great-grandchildren; two brothers, Elmer Heiman of Thorp and Leonard Heiman of Milwaukee; and one sister, Lenore Giwojna, of Thorp; many nieces, nephews and friends.
Ella was preceded in death by her parents; her husband, Allen; four grandchildren, Karen, Brent Kevin and Daniel; one great-granddaughter, Juliana; one daughter-in-law, Nancy Hubbard; and one brother, Raymond Heiman.
