Obituary: Marie L. Hessling
Aurora
Marie L. Hessling, 85, of Aurora, passed away , 28, 2011. She was born 21, 1926.

She grew up on the East side and attended East Aurora High School. She received her bachelors degree in 1956 from the University of Illinois and a masters in 1962 from Northern Illinois University. She was a member of the YWCA, and enjoyed swimming, reading, bowling, knitting and bridge.

She began teaching at K. D. Waldo Jr. High in 1957. She then taught history at Billings Sr. High in Montana in 1958-9.

Four months after marrying James Hessling, she began teaching social studies at West Aurora High School in 1962 where she made $5,900 the first year. Subjects taught included geography, American History, modern history, consumer economics and the behavioral sciences. About midway through her career, the chair of the social studies department, Donald Lindstrom, stated that he considered Marie a master teacher. In describing her as a person, he stated, I have found Ms. Hessling to be a highly enthusiastic person, who has a great respect for her students as individuals, and is very sincere in the development of their educational program. She is a dependable person, exercising a high degree of emotional maturity and is capable of using her fine sense of humor both in and out of the classroom. She retired from West Aurora in 1986.

She and her husband Jim then moved to Albuquerque, NM where they enjoyed the warm climate and Marie continued in education by working as a school secretary. Marie eventually returned with Jim to Ottawa, IL where she and Jim spent much time with Jims family and Marie volunteered at a battered womens shelter. Jims passing in 2004, Marie returned to Aurora to be close to her siblings and extended family.

Survivors include a sister, Peg Aiels of Lakeland, FL; sisters-in-law: Emily Zilly of Aurora; Dorothy Zilly of Tiverton, RI; Sonja Zilly of Huntley, IL; Marybelle (Paul) Musco of New Port Beach, CA; and many nieces and nephews who loved and cared for Marie, many of whom helped Marie with her daily needs as they became more difficult for her and remembered special days and holidays. Maries family also much appreciates the devoted staff at Alden.

Marie was preceded in death by her parents Sophie (Krieg) and John Zilly; her loving husband Jim; siblings: Sam (Bernice)Zilly, Ralph Zilly, Carl Zilly, Ella Zilly, Florence (Bob) Brauer, Kenneth Hack Zilly, and the childhood deaths of David, Grace, and Ruth Zilly; brother-in-law: Ernie of Lakeland, FL; and sisters-in-law: Charlotte Charbonneau and Marilyn Taylor.

It was Maries wish that she be privately buried at Oakwood in Ottawa, IL alongside her husband Jim.

Memorial contributions may be made to the A+ Foundation for West Aurora Schools.
