EUREKA - Mildred Elizabeth Heinold, 91, of Eureka went home to be with her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ on Saturday, April 4, 2020.
Mildred was born on March 19, 1929 to Letcher and Alma (Cappis) Akers. She married Wilbur Heinold on December 20, 1946 in Peoria. He preceded her in death on August 9, 2012.
They were blessed with six children.

She was preceded in death by her daughter, Linda Diane Melton; two sisters, Peggy and Katherine, and four brothers, Harold, Stanley, Jack and Irvin.
Mildred retired from the Apostolic Christian Nursing Home in Eureka at the age of 70 after 30 years of service. There, she made many lasting friends and held fond memories.
Most of all, Mildred loved it when family would gather at her house to sample her wonderful homemade pies and other pastries. She made sure she had extra chairs to set up and toys for the little ones to play with.
She was a member of the Apostolic Christian Church in Goodfield.

There are seven long term care facilities in the state of Illinois that are owned and operated by several Illinois Apostolic Christian Church congregations, including Morton, Roanoke, Fairbury, Elgin, Peoria, and Eureka. The COVID-19 virus has widespread community transmission and the threat of personal protective equipment being available at this time could become a very real issue to healthcare workers. At this time, we are asking that anyone who has the capability of making healthcare gowns, please consider doing so to meet our long term care needs. A pattern to make the type of gown we are needing is available. Please contact Megan Hodel if interested.
In the spirit of christ,
