Erwin "Fox" J. Christjohn, 86, Oneida, passed away Thursday, October 18, 2018 surrounded by his family. He was born March 26, 1932 in Madison, WI to his father Harold and his mother Frances Christjohn. Fox played high school sports and graduated from Tigerton High School Class of 1950. Fox was a Korean War vet in the US Navy where he earned The Purple Heart. While in Milwaukee he met the former Karen Metoxen and they married April 26, 1960 in Illinois. He spent 30 years with the Teamsters Union where he was on the Executive Board and was the Strike Coordinator when they went to strike; which turned into one of the longest strikes. Fox really loved telling a good joke or hearing a good joke from anyone. He enjoyed watching the Brewers, baseball games in general, and the Packers games. His family, though, was his most loved possession he had in life; they meant everything to him. He is survived by his wife of 58 years Karen Christjohn; his sons: Daniel Christjohn, Tom (Lori) Christjohn, David Christjohn, Timothy Christjohn Sr, and Kevin Christjohn; his grandchildren: Daniel Jr, Kayla Marie, Marissa May, Leia Ann, Jacob Thomas, Jacinto, Fox Paul, Timothy Jr, Aaron, and Tyler; six great grandchildren; and his goddaughter Debbie Wilbur.
