Beverly Ann Wenzel was born on September 22, 1930, in Little Falls, MN, to the late Toney and Anna (Danko) Wenzel. She attended school at the Darling Country School, and then went to St. Francis High School and graduated in 1949. Beverly was united in marriage to Kenneth LeMieur on September 16, 1950, at St. James Catholic Church in Randall, MN. They were married for 63 years. She was a devoted member of Holy Family Catholic Church in Belle Prairie, MN. Bev was a faithful woman and often the first call friends and relatives made when in need of prayer. Old notebooks show hundreds of pages of prayer requests she meditated on over the years. Bev had the gift of hospitality and was happiest serving people in her home. No matter the day or time, visitors were greeted with a warm smile, a hot cup of coffee and a homemade cookie. Bev was devoted to helping those most in need and often found volunteering at church events, the St. Francis Convent, and St. Gabriel’s Hospital. In her free time, she loved to shop and tend to her flowers, both at home and at Holy Family Catholic Church. She loved to spend time with her family and friends. Most important to Bev were her five boys, her daughters-in-law and her many grandchildren. She was a joyful servant and a great example to those who knew her. Bev is survived by her sons, Jim (Charlene) LeMieur of Little Falls, MN, John (Debbie) LeMieur of Little Falls, MN, Steve (Paulette Warzecha) LeMieur of Little Falls, MN, Dr. Timothy (Michelle) LeMieur of Crosby, MN, and Mike (Julie) LeMieur of Little Falls, MN; grandchildren, Jonathan (Heidi) LeMieur, Cody (Samantha) LeMieur, Kyle (Margit) LeMieur, Lacy Jane (Dan) Cooley, Maria (Brian) Stemple, Luke LeMieur, Eli (Melissa) LeMieur, Isaac LeMieur, Nick LeMieur, Arianna LeMieur, Sammy LeMieur, and Seth LeMieur; 11 great-grandchildren; siblings, Fr. Timothy Wenzel, Tony (Judy) Wenzel, Kathryn (Danny) Knight, Steve Wenzel, Mike Wenzel, Jerry (Kathy) Wenzel, and Anne (Ron) Bratton.
