Frances Schoening, 91, passed away peacefully with her daughter Stephanie by her side on June 20, 2022, at ManorCare Nursing Facility in Lacey, WA. Frances was born on May 12, 1931 and spent her childhood years in Shelton, WA with her parents Wally Dundas and Ari V VanScoyoc. She lived many years in Aberdeen, WA and Olympia, WA. She was preceded in death by her husbands CW “Bill” Brehmeyer in 1958, Raymond Schoening in 1976 and her son John Schoening in 2006. Frances is survived by her daughters Sharlon (Alan) Jacobs of Olympia, Susan (Ed) Hibbert of Olympia, Sherry (Devron) Rayment of Deer Park, WA, Stephanie (Doug) Hoover of Gig Harbor, and Sonja Einersson. Also surviving are 18 grandchildren, numerous great-grandchildren and a large extended family. Mom will be remembered by her bigger than life personality, sense of humor, and her love of family gatherings, especially Christmas. The family would also like to thank the nursing staff and aides at ManorCare for the care and compassion they showed Mom as they took care of her the past eight months. A family memorial will be held at a later date.
