Eileen M. Boeckman

June 17, 1929 — November 30, 2023

Coldwater, Ohio

Eileen M. Boeckman, 94, of Coldwater, Ohio, passed away peacefully on Thursday, November 30, 2023 at Briarwood Village. 

She was born on June 17, 1929, in Maria Stein, Ohio, to the late Aloys and Philomena (Homan) Nieberding. 

Eileen is survived by her children, Tom (Linda) Boeckman of Coldwater, John (Linda) Boeckman of Coldwater, Ron (Elly) Boeckman of Fort Recovery, Jane (Leo) Homan of Coldwater, Dale (Connie) Boeckman of Coldwater, and Diane (Doug) Muhlenkamp of Coldwater; her 19 grandchildren and 50 great grandchildren; and her in-laws, Mary Agnes Boeckman of Coldwater, Bill (Jane) Boeckman of Coldwater and Mary Lou Nieberding of Maria Stein. 

In addition to her parents, Eileen was preceded in death by her husband, Arthur Boeckman, whom she married on July 26, 1950 and who passed away on May 21, 2002; her great granddaughter, Maria; her brother, Robert Nieberding; and her in-laws, Richard (Rita) Boeckman, Robert (Ethel) Boeckman, Ralph Boeckman, Mary (Ralph) Tumbusch, infant Wilma Boeckman, and Virginia Boeckman.  

Eileen was a 1947 graduate of the former St. John High School in Maria Stein. She was also a member of St. Peter Catholic Church and the church's Christians Mother Sodality.

In Eileen's earlier years she was dedicated to raising her family and being a devoted farm wife. She was a humble and selfless person who always put everyone else's needs before her own. Later in life, she was dedicated to praying for others' needs and could be found in her home with her rosary always within arm's reach. She was proud of each of her grandchildren and treasured all their accomplishments. Eileen's greatest joy was celebrating the holidays and special occasions with her family. 

A Mass of Christian Burial will be held at 10:30 AM on Monday, December 4, 2023, at St. Peter Catholic Church with Father Ethan Hoying celebrating. Burial will follow in the church cemetery.
