Autoren-Porträt von Tillie Fields
Thelma Fields (Tillie) at eighty-nine is living in the house where she and her late husband, Adrian, raised their seven children-all of which she states, “Turned out wonderful”! Tillie shared her good work ethics and Christianity mixed with humor and love while raising her children. She had great role models: her parents were German immigrants who came to America in 1912. They bought an eighty-acre dairy and crop farm northeast of Shiocton, Wisconsin in 1919. This is where Tillie grew up with eight siblings. Tillie was born in 1926: her dad delivered her at home. All summer long the children ran barefoot, but in the fall when school started each received a pair of shoes. In the morning before school Tillie milked cows while singing the “Top 10” musical hits with her siblings. Then they all walked two miles to Maple Lawn School, with their lunches, which sometimes consisted of radishes and salted lard sandwiches. During the Great Depression, Tillie’s Ma and Pa had to “make do” and be creative, in order to make ends meet. Tillie graduated from Shiocton High School in 1944, third in her class (Historian) of twenty-nine. She moved to Appleton, Wisconsin where she was employed at Wisconsin Michigan Power Company in the Customer Accounting Department. Later she was promoted to a dispatching position. A highlight during her working career was being on the company’s girl’s softball team called the Reddy Kilowatts. After her first child was born, she was a mom first, but also found time to pursue her many hobbies and interests: taking classes such as sewing and writing. Adrian and Tillie also had a side business, Fields Concessions, and the whole family helped during the summer months selling popcorn and cotton candy at Company Picnics and County Fairs. Tillie’s cherished memories will be passed down through her descendants and will delight readers for years to come through her book: A Lifetime of Memories.
