Who is Heather?

Heather’s Camp honors the memory of Heather Suzanne Francis Muller, her love of children and her desire to help those with special needs.

A light to those in darkness

Born to James and Lois Muller on September 21, 1975, Heather attended high school at Kapaun Mt. Carmel and was involved in Music Theatre for Young People, Wichita Children’s Theatre and Music Theatre of Wichita. She impacted hundreds of people with her beautiful voice and musical talent. Heather was an active member of Delta Gamma and had a passion for its philanthropy: Service for Sight.

In 1998, Heather graduated with a degree in audiology from Wichita State. She began working with children while pursuing her master’s degree in early childhood special education. Heather would have completed her degree in May 2001. Though she is gone, her spirit will always be with us. We find comfort knowing she is present each time a person sings a song, helps a child, or says a prayer.
