Thomas Peter Wolf

Thomas Peter Wolf, age 70, of Fredonia passed away peacefully at his home on Oct. 28, 2024, surrounded by his family and fur babies, whom he loved and cherished more than anything.

He was born to Gerald and Irene Wolf in Milwaukee, Wis., on May 26, 1954.  

He graduated from Nicolet High School.

On Feb. 15, 1975, he married his soulmate Rebecca. They went on to have four beautiful daughters.

Tom worked most of his life at Metal Spinners in Germantown as a foreman.  

Tom enjoyed spending time with his family, hunting, sports (avid GB Packers fan), gambling, camping, sipping on Drambuie, whipping around on his golf cart, sharing many great times with his Lazy Day’s campground family, gardening and bird watching. Above all, he loved his life and laughing. His laugh was the most contagious sound anyone had ever heard. To know him was to love him.  

Tom is survived by his soulmate Rebecca; daughters Stephanie (Dan Wagner), Adrienne Wolf (Kyle Mulvany), Ashley Wolf and Courtney (Taylor Harlin); grandchildren Owen, Tyler, Logan, Daltan, Tony, Alex, Lauren, Klayton and Thomas; siblings Jerry Wolf, Mike Wolf (Kathy), Lisa (Dan Seymour), Randy Palbicki and Jeff Palbicki; and sister-in-law Sue Krupski; as well as many cousins, nieces, nephews and friends.

Tom was preceded in death by his father Gerald Wolf, mother Irene Palbicki, stepfather Ralph Palbicki, brothers John and Greg, father-in-law Carl Nordquist, mother-in-law Patricia Nordquist and brothers-in law Greg Nordquist and Ray Krupski, along with other dear family and friends. 

Tom always lived his life to the fullest. Despite having a ruptured brain aneurysm 20 years ago that left him disabled, he never saw the bad; he only saw the good in life and felt blessed every day. Tom fought a short but brave battle with leukemia. Despite his diagnosis, his only concern was his family, never himself. He was the most loving, selfless, kind, funny and loyal man.

A celebration of life will be held at a later date. Details to follow.  

The family would like to thank Dr. Mark Fitzsimmons, Dr. Maul, St. Luke’s Hospital oncology staff, the staff of Aurora Medical Center in Grafton and the Aurora Cancer Center for all their kindness, care and compassion. A special thanks to Grafton hospital registered nurses Sam and Nathan, who treated Tom and his family with care, dignity and empathy and eased Tom’s transition in coming home. Thank you to all our loved ones and friends for your prayers and support.

Eernisse Funeral Home is assisting the family with arrangements.
