Found peace on Saturday, July 6, 2019. Age 73. Cherished husband of Brenda (nee Kaczor), for 45 years. Dear brother of Daryle (Katie) Cook, Darwin (Tammy) Cook, Darlene (Perry) Baumann, and Debbie (Ken) Reed. Also loved by nieces, nephew, other relatives, and many dear friends.

A man of many strengths and talents, he had an uncanny ability with his crazy t-shirts and quick wit to always find a way to elicit a smile. He shot straight from the hip and you always knew where you stood with him. His passion for wildlife, especially waterfowl, was a lifelong commitment and he used his gregarious nature and talents to help raise funds for many charitable organizations. A good man, a good friend…forever in our hearts.

Gathering at Krause Funeral Home, 12401 West National Avenue, New Berlin, Wisconsin, on Saturday, July 27, 2019, from 1:00 PM- 4:15 PM. Service at 4:30 PM. A special thank you to the caregivers at Aurora Zilber Family Hospice and Jess, and the family and friends that have surrounded us with love and support during these difficult times. Memorials appreciated to the charity of your choice.

Death is the heartache no one can heal, Memories are keepsakes no one can steal. Beautiful memories are all we have left, Of the ones we loved and will never forget. Softly the leaves of memory fall, Gently we gather and cherish them all. Planted deep in memory's garden And watered daily with tears, Memory has a magical way Of keeping loved ones near.
