She was a 1982 graduate of Hustisford High School and a 1988 graduate of UW-Stout.

In her spare time, she enjoyed baking, entering her baked items in Dodge and Waukesha County Fair, making her famous dinner rolls, and reading. She also did special projects with all her nieces and nephews, such as backyard camping and kite flying. Patty continued to teach outside the classroom as she shared her baking skills with young aspiring bakers, (her nieces) teaching them how to bake Irish Soda Bread, monster cookies, and lemon meringue pie. She also taught everyone she encountered how to put the needs of others first. Patricia is survived by her siblings, Cynthia Zills, Herbert A. Becker III, Debra (Chris) Neitzel, Linda (Dave) Rader, Timothy (Lisa) Becker, David Becker, Jeffery (Charlene) Becker, Sarah Becker, Lisa (Greg) Mueller, Rebecca Becker, and all of her nieces and nephews who meant so much to her.

Riley Scott Gable, 21, of Horicon slid into Heaven peacefully on Saturday, Oct. 24, 2020. He was born on February 18, 1999, in Hartford, to parents Melissa (Peters) Holub and Robert Gable. Riley instantly brought joy to his family’s life with his easy smile, fun-loving nature, and penchant for always being dirty and disorganized. Known for his wicked sense of humor and ability to make everyone laugh, Riley was the king of one-liners. Riley was generous with his time and a good listener when people needed to talk. One of Riley’s best qualities was his big heart and overwhelming capacity to love his family, including his grandparents Nan and John with whom he resided at the time of his death and had a special relationship. Riley loved baking and game nights with his Mom, fishing and hunting with his Dad, playing basketball with his sister Julia, and watching out for his little sister Alli. He also played soccer every summer and developed his joy of wrestling at an early age. Riley wrestled and played football at Horicon High School, where he graduated in 2017, thanks to the support of his coach and mentor, Lucas Kern. While in school, Riley volunteered with special needs students and developed a unique relationship with several of the students which was very meaningful to him. After graduation, Riley was employed at various local companies as a laser operator and welder. In September 2017, he experienced the greatest joy in his life when his daughter, Odyssah Gable, was born. Riley loved Odyssah with all his heart, loved being a father, and doted on her constantly. Riley is survived by his daughter, Odyssah; mother, Melissa (Peters) Holub and father, Robert (Chastity) Gable; and sisters, Julia (Jamie) Rahn and Alli Gable. He also leaves his grandparents, John and Nan Gable and Al Vogel; special friend, BriAnna Fleming; aunt and uncle, Lynn (Gable) and Matt Peters, uncle James Whittamore, uncle and aunt, Scott and Amy Whittamore, and many other family members and loved ones. Riley was preceded in death by his grandmother, Jo Vogel; and great-grandmother, Rose Peters. Arrangements are being handled by the Koepsell Funeral home. Due to Covid-19, a celebration of life will be held for Riley in spring 2021 at Discher Park in Horicon. More info will be forthcoming, and memorials can be made to the family and sent to 721 Forest Drive, Mayville, WI 53050. For more information or to leave an online condolence visit www.

Kevin Wulff left this world for the next in the early morning on Friday, October, 23, 2020, while hospitalized at Froedtert Hospital, Milwaukee. Born on July 8, 1960 to Eldon and Arlene Wulff, Kevin grew up on the family farm in the Town of Wayne in Washington County. While in high school, Kevin was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis. With God’s help, he made the most of his time on earth, living the challenging life of a farmer while sharing his sense of humor, his kindness, and his faith with all he met, especially those who were in need. His body was weary, battling the rheumatoid arthritis all these years, so much so that it could no longer fight the infections that had overtaken his body, and his heavenly Father said, “It’s time to come home, my beloved son.” He leaves behind many who mourn his loss, not only here in the United States but also in Australia, and the Philippines, including dear cousins and other relatives, friends, and special neighbors, his mother, four sisters, one sister-in-law, their spouses, children, and grandchildren. Arlene Wulff, mother; April Tetlow (Andy) of Austinburg, OH, Nina Wulff (Larry Laux) of Dousman, Cheryl Wozniak (John) of Port Washington, Linda Wulff (Roger Plumb) of Beaver Dam, sisters; and Jennifer Daul (Scott Wulff) of St Paul, MN, sister-in-law. Kevin was preceded in death by his brother, Scott; his father; and his beloved fiancé, Marilou, of the Philippines. Kevin would also want his Mayville friends and farming community to know how much he valued them, their friendships, and the way they were always there for him when he was in need. A 1978 graduate of Kewaskum High School, Kevin became a skilled woodworker, carpenter, and mechanic, but farming was his passion so Kevin enrolled in the UW-Madison Agricultural Short course, and became a successful farm operator of both the home farm and his own farm on HWY AY in the Town of Theresa in Dodge County. His beef cattle were sought out by buyers in search of high quality steaks, and his corn crops were the envy of his neighbors. At the same time, most who knew Kevin were unaware of his work in the Philippines where he began what eventually became known as Christians Who Care, a small number of like-minded people who currently bring the gospel and a hot meal to over 500 children living in severe poverty unknown to us in the United States. Through Kevin’s ongoing support, these children are fed, both physically and spiritually. Similarly, Kevin’s support allowed many to receive medical treatment that otherwise would not have been available to them. The family wishes to honor Kevin’s memory and continue his work by establishing a memorial fund, “Feeding Kevin’s Kids.” Please make memorials payable to “Kevin Wulff Memorial Fund.” Memorials may be sent directly to Port Washington State Bank, 206 N Franklin St, Port Washington, WI 53074. For more information on Feeding Kevin’s Kids, questions, or information on making electronic donations, email feedingkevinskids@gmail.com. The family would like to thank the dedicated doctors and all the compassionate, good-humored nurses and caregivers at Froedtert. Due to the ongoing spread of COVID 19 and the need to limit the size of gatherings, a private funeral service will be held at the Koepsell Funeral Home in Mayville. Rev. Douglas J. Zahner will officiate. Interment will take place at Lutheran Memorial Park in Kewaskum. Koepsell Funeral Home in Mayville is serving the family.
