Heidi Walcott Obituary

Heidi Marie Walcott of Warsaw, Indiana passed away at her residence surrounded by her loved ones at 6:41 a. m. on Saturday, September 9, 2023, at the age of 58. She fought a courageous battle with cancer and insisted that life go on as normal. Cancer wasn't going to interfere with all of the precious time she was able to spend with her family. Those that knew Heidi, understood that she would never let this illness or her enduring pain get in her way even throughout her treatment. Her lovely smile and big heart kept her going. She was born on February 22, 1965, in Goshen, Indiana to Helen D. (Lange) Troyer and Donald Allen Troyer. Heidi grew up in Goshen and was a 1983 graduate of Fairfield High School. On April 27, 1985, she married the love of her life and best friend, Daniel A. Walcott. They shared 38 wonderful years together before Heidi passed away. Heidi served alongside her husband, Dan, in their family business as the vice-president of Eagle Outdoor Advertising in Warsaw which they founded in 1985. Her family stated that Heidi was the glue that kept the company heading in a positive path, she was the voice of reason. Heidi was the one who was always organized. She attended Bethany Community Church in New Paris. Heidi was an absolute inspiration to everyone who knew her, had a great sense of humor, and dearly loved being Mom and Grandma! She always had enough time and love for family, especially spoiling her grandchildren. She will forever be remembered as a loving wife, mother, grandmother, daughter and sister who will be dearly missed.
