Randal Parkin

Randal Parkin

Randal (“Randy”) J. Parkin, 56, of Wausau passed away on Friday, Aug. 21, 2020, at his home.  Randy was born Dec. 2, 1963, in Wausau to the late Arlon and Jeanne (Spreutels) Parkin.  He courageously fought and survived two different cancer battles and a heart defect, and struggled with other health issues.  Randy’s quirky sense of humor was appreciated and enjoyed by many, including the doctors and nurses who cared for him over the years.  He easily found ways to make others laugh, even during his illnesses.

Randy graduated from Wausau West High School in 1982 and attended UW Marathon campus.  Over the years, he worked as a laborer at Weyerhaeuser Paper Mill, an apartment manager, and a carpenter.  Randy’s passions were the Green Bay Packers, the Milwaukee Brewers, the Wisconsin Badgers, and fishing!  He spent many afternoons and evenings listening to and watching his beloved sports teams.  As much as Randy loved sports, he loved his family and friends more.  His quick wit and one-liners kept everyone on their toes, and he loved to stump people with unique vocabulary terms.  He had an exceptional memory which gave him the ability to quote many scriptures and other facts at will.  He truly enjoyed time with family, especially during larger gatherings that included his nieces and nephews and great nieces and nephews.  Randy always thought of others first and was generous in giving what he had.  He was blessed with an amazing extended family of friends who would do anything for him.  He especially cherished time with the “Group” at Mike’s and fishing with Kirk.  Randy will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved him. 

Randy is survived by his brother, Rick Parkin (Holly Kohl), Rib Mountain; two sisters, Debra (Mark) Woller, Rib Mountain, and Wendy Marquardt (Mike Clark), Mosinee; three nephews, Jason Woller, Rob Hoehn, and Mathew Parkin; four nieces, Samantha Robinson, Danielle Igl, Michaela Marquardt, and Sarah Woller, and his great nieces and nephews.  Randy was preceded in death by his parents and grandparents. 

The family will be holding a celebration of life at a later date.  Helke Funeral Home and Cremation Services, Wausau, is assisting the family with arrangements; you may sign our family guestbook at helke.com.

The family wishes to thank Dr. Ahuja, Dr. Platta, and Dr. Miles and many nurses and other health specialists for the outstanding dedication, care, and kindness provided to Randy.  In lieu of flowers, please direct memorial gifts to the American Cancer Society or the American Heart Association.

Rosemary Roubinek

Rosemary Roubinek

Rosemary Therese Roubinek, 95, from the city of Wausau, went home to be with the Lord on Wednesday, Aug. 26, 2020. Rosemary was born on Aug. 7, 1925, in Wausau, daughter of the late Otto and Eleanor (Scholz) Strehlow. She was married on Jan. 28, 1950, at St. Mary Catholic Church in Wausau to the love of her life, James. He preceded her in death on Aug. 22, 1990.

A child of the Depression era, Mom left school early to help her mother raise her nine other siblings. During World War II she worked for Marathon Rubber Plant where she produced raincoats for the military. After the war, she worked at Lonsdorf’s Pharmacy on North Sixth Street where she met her husband, Jim. As a homemaker she also enjoyed being playground supervisor at Saint Mary’s school where her children were students. Mom also did cleaning jobs for Wausau Medical Center and Wipfli Ulrich. More than anything she loved taking care of her family most, raising her four children, cooking, and taking pride in her home. Mom’s greatest joy was watching her grandchildren, teaching them to play “drop the clothespin in the bucket,” singing silly songs, and taking them for long walks around the neighborhood where she proudly shared with them the mural of her depicted along the north wall of the Eastside Laundromat where she worked. She was a devoted and doting Grandma!

Mom also liked to find a good rummage sale (she always dickered for a good price), ride her bike, and walk downtown to go shopping. Even after she was confined to her wheelchair, one could still find her in the mall or at Papillon’s eating her favorite lunch.

She had a deep and abiding faith that sustained her throughout all these years. As everyone knows, praying the rosary brought her great comfort and she always had rosary beads within reach. She also had a love of angels and loved to share her collection of figurines with people who visited her in the nursing home. Perhaps more than sharing her angels, she liked it when her visitors treated her to a Werthers candy, a fish sandwich and a Pepsi, and flowers. She loved flowers, especially gladiolas.

Rosie was never afraid to let her feelings be known. She was spunky and told it like it was. This usually brought a smile to everyone’s face. She will be loved, missed, and forever in our hearts.

Rosemary is survived by her son, Steven (Paula) Roubinek of Wausau, and three daughters, Patti (Rod) Hafeman of Wausau, Carole Greene (Brian Greene) of Wausau, Barbara (Doug) Adams of Wausau, one brother, Dave Strehlow of Marinette, WI and one sister Janie Ala of Seattle, WA, and three sisters-in-law, Sue Strehlow of Schofield, WI, Esther Strehlow of Wausau, and Grace Schuster of Chicago. She will be dearly missed by her five grandchildren, Eric Roubinek, Lindsay Roubinek (fiance Matt Gebhard), Ben Hafeman, Alyssa Greene (spouse Clark Etten) and Haley (Kenneth) Norman and her two great grandchildren, Wyatt Norman and Mina Rose Gebhard, and many nieces and nephews.

Besides her parents and husband, James, she was preceded in death by her father- and mother-in-law, Myron and Ethel (Wirth) Roubinek, one granddaughter Megan Greene, one sister Anita Warnke, and six brothers, Gerald, Raymond, Herbert, Eugene, Joseph, and Tommie Strehlow.

Services will be after Labor Day and will be announced at a later date. John J. Buettgen Funeral Home is assisting the family with arrangements.

Stacy Karschney

Stacy Karschney

Stacy Lee Karschney, 52, received her angel wings on Wednesday, Aug. 26, 2020. Stacy joined Jesus in Heaven while at home under the care of her loving family and Aspirus Comfort Care and Hospice Services.

On July 1, 1968, Kay and Bill Karschney (Hatley) were blessed with this beautiful brown-eyed angel that would forever change their lives. Stacy was diagnosed with a rare condition called tuberous sclerosis at an early age. Physicians said she would be lucky to see the age of 10, but they surely did not know the strength, determination, and utmost fighting spirit that our sweet “TaTa” possessed. She endured many healthcare battles during her 52 years and faced every one of them with an exceptional strength that most people could only dream of, including a brave arduous struggle at the end of her life.

In Stacy’s younger years she loved to swing, whether that be at the playground or in the basement at home. She loved riding her rocking horse and playing on the twirly bird (merry go round) with her sisters. She greatly enjoyed riding in the car, and especially loved it when that ride was taking her to a restaurant! Stacy adored her nephews and cherished attending their sporting events – football, basketball, and baseball games. You could find Stacy laughing and smiling amongst the hustle of the game and cheering of the fans.

Stacy provided our family with so many memorable moments and lifelong entertainment with her funny idiosyncrasies – playing with greeting cards and tearing them to shreds, belly laughing at noises funny only to her such as coughing and sneezing, and always laughing at the perfect timing of a joke or funny comment. She was non-verbal but always seemed to understand exactly what was going on around her. She was always adored and protected by her family dogs that seemed to have special bonds with her.

Stacy taught many people what unconditional love is and was the inspiration for more than one to become a nurse or special education teacher. She was the nucleus of our family and every move her parents made for 52 years was centered around her and her care. Their unwavering extraordinary love and amazing commitment to bring her life dignity and normalcy, kept Stacy with us for 42 years beyond her life expectancy. God sure knew what he was doing when he selected them to be Stacy’s parents.

She brought more joy and love to our family than anyone could ever imagine, and taught all of us to love hard, have patience, and be kinder and more sensitive. Nothing happens by chance. She was our angel on earth and was loved by many more than words can fully explain.

Stacy attended the North Central Health Care EACH Program, the Marathon County Special Education Program, and graduated from the D.C. Everest Special Education Program in 1989.

Stacy is survived by her devoted and loving parents, Bill and Kay (Hatley); older sister, Sonja Petermann (Schofield); younger sister, Shannon, and brother-in-law, Frank Todd (Elk Mound); two nephews, Blaze (UW-River Falls) and Brex (Elk Mound); godparents, Tim and Rose Nowinsky (Hatley); amazing respite caregiver, Julie Arnett (Wausau); very dear friends, Cheryl Thorson (Wausau) and Mary Lee Schulta (Weston); and many aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends.
Stacy was preceded in death and welcomed to Heaven by her grandparents, Leonard and Elgenia Kluck and Edwin and Ardale Karschney; and uncles, John “Donny” Carlson, Tom Kluck, and Jim Vollmer.

A Mass of Christian Burial will be held at 6 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 4, 2020, at St. Florian’s Catholic Parish, Hatley. Rev. Gregory Bohren will preside. Burial will be in the parish cemetery. Visitation will be held on Friday from 4 p.m. until the time of Mass at the church. The Mass will be live streamed beginning at 6 p.m. on Schmidt & Schulta Funeral Home Facebook page.

Schmidt & Schulta Funeral Home, Wittenberg, is assisting the family with arrangements.

Stacy’s family would like to thank Aspirus Comfort Care and Hospice Services for the kind and compassionate care and guidance they provided at her end of life, especially Haley, Shelly, Linda, Tania, Laurie, and Natalie.

Rest in peace and fly high our dear, sweet Stacy. We will miss you tremendously, but your beautiful soul and spirit will remain with us always. You are still incredibly loved and will remain steadfast in our hearts.
