LOLA LEE GOLLINGER

MUNISING - Lola Lee Gollinger, 89, of Munising died peacefully on Monday morning, January 2, 2023, at Munising Memorial Hospital where she was surrounded by her loved ones. She was born on October 15, 1933, in Munising to Everett and Adeline (Kaufman) Pangborn. Lola grew up in Munising and at a young age her father Everett died, leaving Addie to raise their three children. Addie later married Mearle “Mac” Disbrow and he stepped in their lives as a father. Lola attended Badger Business School in Green Bay, Wis. shortly after graduation from Wm. G. Mather High School in 1951. When her high school sweetheart, John “Jack” Gollinger, returned from the U.S. Navy, they were married on June 9, 1956, and together raised their six children. Lola became employed at Peoples State Bank when their youngest child Lisa started kindergarten. She worked there as a bookkeeper and was a member of the bank staff for over 20 years until her retirement. She and Jack were avid golfers and they were inaugural members of the Pictured Rocks Golf and Country Club. They loved golfing together, Friday night fish fries and couples league. To say Lola loved golf was an understatement! Her Wednesday league day was sacred, and her spirit was competitive. She earned the title of Ladies League champ at least eight times and earned PRG&CC’s first woman to ever ace a hole in one on June 6, 2000. She golfed until the age of 86, until when a broken arm ended her golfing career. She was a member of Ladies Tuesday night bowling league and the Legion shuffleboard league. Lola and Jack enjoyed time at Breezy Point on Mirror Lake with family and wintering in Panama City Beach, Fla. Her faith was important to her and she was a devout and faithful member of the Sacred Heart Church. To say Lola was a diehard Packer fan was also an understatement! Sunday football was a sacred day in the Gollinger household and she and Jack were there to cheer the Pack on! She made her last trip to Lambeau with her family
