Beatrice "Beatty" Rosella (Kaatz) Stallmann, age 99, passed away peacefully January 20, 2020 with family by her side after complications from pneumonia. She was born March 22, 1920 in Athelstane, Wisconsin to Otto and Arena (Waters) Kaatz in the house which she later raised her own family. On November 18, 1938, she married her true love Maynard Stallmann, who preceded her in death on November 22, 2003.
