Donald M. Wegand, 71, Greenleaf, passed away peacefully surrounded by family on Thursday, February 14, 2019. He was born February 23, 1947 in Kaukauna to the late Robert and Rita (Verhagen) Wegand. On May 17, 1968 he married Doris Kersten at St. Mary Catholic Church, Greenleaf. Don was a member of St. Claire Catholic Church, Greenleaf. Don owned a dairy farm and drove a sand truck for Endries for many years. He loved the outdoors, whether it was fishing, hunting, or time at their cabin. Some of his hobbies included bowling, his love of riding on trains and model trains. Don was very active in the community, as a proud member of the Greenleaf Volunteer Fire Department for 44 years where he served as assistant chief for 23 years. Don also was a fire inspector, a member of the Brown County Hazmat Team, and Brown County Arson Task Force. Additionally, he served as the town supervisor for Wrightstown and on the Zoning Board of Appeals. It was the time spent with his family though that meant the most to him. Don is survived by his wife Doris, children: Amy (Russ) Stover, Shelly Wegand, Julie (Shawn) Puishis, and Jenny (Jake) Geurts. Grandchildren: Rachel, Alexandra, Ben, Elizabeth, Hailey, Conner, Bret, his siblings: (identical twin) Ronald (Jackie) Wegand, Tim (Jill) Wegand, Jim (Jeanne) Wegand, Joe (Marge) Wegand, Chris (Joe) Verhagen, as well as Doris's family, and numerous nieces and nephews.
