Helen Maris
Residency: 1975
Helen was married to Henry "Hank"
Maris. After she had surgery and went home, she began to
feel sickly. It grew worse and worse, but the doctor could not
find out what was wrong. She was suffering and in agony in
spite of pain medications and her doctor finally ordered
exploratory surgery. During the surgery it was found that a
sponge had been left in her from the earlier surgery. By then
it was too late and she died from a massive infection.

Cause of death: Surgical malpractice
Interment: St. Germain Cemetery

Henry Maris
Residency: 1975
Henry was known as "Hank" and he was
employed by Northland Pines School District as a custodian for
many years (retired). When his wife,
Helen,
passed away because of a botched surgery, he was asked by some
in town if he was going to sue. His reply was "I am not a sewer
(sic). My grief and sorrow are not so shallow that the balm of
money will sooth it over."
Yes, he said, "sewer," and spelled it out loud this way. He
added that the pronunciation fit those kind of people. We agree
with Hank and so do many others! He took his wife's death quite
hard and it took much time along with the support of many of the
townspeople for him to recover. He was in his eighties when
struck by an arrogant, "I-can-go-where-I-want" snowmobiler whom
he was trying to keep from running over his septic area. (which
was no where near the sanctioned trail) and he never recovered
well from that.
Date deceased:
