Ernest Weihbrecht, Jr.
February 12, 1930 - June 5, 2010

Ernest G. Weihbrecht, Jr. 80, Green Bay passed away on Saturday, June 5, 2010 at his home with his family at his side.

Ernie was born on February 12, 1930 in De Pere, WI to the late Ernest and Loretta (Smits) Weihbrecht, Sr.

Ernie enlisted in the US Air Force and re-enlisted in the US Army to serve his country during the Korean War, and was discharged in 1954.

On January 17, 1953 he married the former Gladys E. Stanchik and the couple has enjoyed over 57 years together.

Ernie worked in construction for all of his life and was employed by Dick Zolper for over 25 years. His dedication and pride in his work were appreciated by many.

Ernie's family and work came first but he liked to play cribbage and in his earlier years enjoyed bowling in a couples league. He threw one of the fastest balls in the area and you could hear the crack of the pins everywhere in the alley.

Ernie loved his family very much and enjoyed many memorable times together.

Ernie is survived by his loving wife Gladys, his children Russell (Joanne) Weihbrecht, David Weihbrecht, Katherine (Paul) Burkard, Karen Weihbrecht, Wesley Weihbrecht, Ernest Weihbrecht, III, 9 grandchildren, 3 great-grandchildren, 1 sister and brother-in-law Carlotte (Roger) Garrity, 2 sisters-in-law Frances and Lillian. He is further survived by other relatives and friends.

He was preceded in death by his grandson Michael Paul Burkard, 2 brothers Rudolph and Richard.

Gathering of family and friends will be held from 10:00 to 11:00 A.M. on Friday, June 11, 2010 at St. Joseph Catholic Church 1224 12th Avenue. Funeral Service 11:00 A.M. at the church with Rev. Timothy Brandt officiating.

In lieu of flowers a Memorial Fund has been established in his name.

The family would like to thank Unity Hospice of Green Bay for their wonderful support and care during this time. And also a special thank you to his caregiver Cory, who helped so very much.
