Barbara Jean Watts

Barbara Jean (Tracy) Watts, age 69, passed away on Sunday, March 28th, 2021 at Alten Haus in Neenah due to a long illness. Barb was born in Appleton on December 29th, 1951, daughter to late Jean Louise (Holzer) Nuernberg and Roland Tracy.

Barb went to Menasha High School and was a Fox Valley Resident most of her life. She loved Bonita Beach, trips to Orlando, reading books, a good game of cards, going to a Timber Rattlers game and spending time with her Mom.

Barb will be missed by her children: Dawn (Allen) Heitl, Carl Heitl; stepson, Eddie (Julie) Watts; grandson, Joshua Heitl Colon. She is further survived by her sister, Victoria Bethke; brothers, Michael Nuernberg, William (Cheryl) Tracy, John (Marsha) Tracy; and several nieces and nephews. Barb was preceded in death by her sisters: Kathryn (Nuernberg) Werth, Gail Bethke; and brother, Daniel Tracy.

Dawn would like to thank Alten Haus in Neenah and the staff for all the loving care they have given to Barb throughout the years, along with SouthernCare Hospice, for their care and compassion during her last days.

Private family services will be held later this year. Konrad-Behlman Funeral Home is taking care of the arrangements. Barb’s final resting place will be at Greenlawn Memorial Park in Neenah.

In lieu of flowers or services, please perform a random act of kindness or make a donation of your choice in Barb’s name.
