Dr. John E. Mielke, 87, Appleton, was remembered, personally and through his family’s foundation, as a strong benefactor of the Shawano community following his death Nov. 4.
Following in a family tradition, the physician was a force for positive change in education, health care and the arts in the Shawano area.
Rhonda Strebel, Shawano Common Council district 2 alderperson and Rural Health Initiative director, recalled Mielke as a person who “cared deeply and would really listen.”
