Carol Wilke

Carol M. Wilke, 70, of Wausau, passed away on Friday, February 8, 2019, at her home.

Carol was born on September 6, 1948 to the late Henry and Elsie (Erdman) Wilke in the Town of Hewitt. Being a social butterfly, Carol enjoyed activities that included spending time with others. She loved to play Bingo, attending different social gatherings, going to church, spending time at the clubhouse and taking and collecting photos of her family friends and all of the things in life that made her happy. Carol was a like a ray of sunshine with a smile that could light up any room.

She is survived by her sisters, Joan Pray and Jean (Ralph) Pagryzinski; four nephews; her cousins, Larry Coerper and his son Brett and Ellen Fitzke, as well as many other cousins; and her special friend Rose Schreiber.

In addition to her parents, Carol was preceded in death by her niece Maryann and her brother-in-law Gary Pray.
