  Sommers, Todd J. The world will miss a generous, humble and kind person who had a zest for life and a spirited soul. Todd James Sommers, 53 years young, passed away unexpectedly on Monday, March 30th 2015. He was born on December 30th in 1961 to Edward and Carol Sommers. Todd lived and grew up in the Shiocton area and for the past 20 years he lived in Appleton. Todd is survived by his significant love, Joda Joy Wunderlich. They shared a home with many fond and special memories together. His family members include his loving mother, Carol (Miller) Sommers and caring step-father, Myron Kruzicki. Todd was preceded in death by his father, Edward, and his younger brother, Ted, and his dear friend and sidekick, Adam "Ike" Eisenhauer. His remaining siblings are his sister, Cynthia Sommers Trettin, living in Hershey, PA, and his three brothers, Sam (Julie), Fred (Ranae) and Aaron (Carie) who are all living in the Appleton area. He has two step-sisters, Paula (Wayne) Guyette in Hortonville and Robin Young in Appleton and one step-brother, Todd Kruzicki in Shiocton. Todd had numerous beloved nephews and nieces: Andrew and Tyler Trettin plus Lacey (Sommers) Schneider. The remaining nephews/nieces have the Sommers surname including Joshua, Jordan, Noah, Taylor, Wesley, Finley, Bode and Ainsley. He could usually be found at any family event surrounded by the kids, sneaking them candy and bending his fingers backwards. Additionally, Todd spent precious time with and was extremely close to his godson Brock Eisenhauer. Todd had become incredibly close to little Brock and he so loved him. Todd graduated from Shiocton High School in 1980. He played football, basketball and baseball during those pivotal years. Todd was given the nickname PINKY in high school. To this day he is still known to many as Pinky! After Shiocton High Todd started his post secondary education at UW Oshkosh and transferred to UW Madison where he attended for several years! His area of training and expertise was in Construction Management. Todd started working for the family business, Sommers Construction in Shiocton during his teenage years and continued throughout his life. He loved the challenge of the construction business and the camaraderie of his employees (the men). Many a weekend you'd find Pinky working in his office, just like this past weekend watching the Badger game and working on bids. Todd loved all sports and especially any he could place a wager on! His all time favorite teams were the Green Bay Packers, the Wisconsin Badgers and Milwaukee Brewers. There were many great times at those stadiums when Pinky was there celebrating and often in rare form. Todd enjoyed golfing and his annual spring golf trips south with his brothers Fred and Aaron and his godson, Tyler. He thoroughly participated in going to sporting events of his nephews and nieces even flying out to Hershey and flying to Tyler's playoff games. We all loved and enjoyed having Todd at these events! Pinky enjoyed a good adventure and his most favorite place on Earth was Lake Lucerne in Crandon. Many wonderful family vacations have been spent around that lake and campfire. He was a master fire builder and was often found sitting around the fire and throwing on "one more log" most of the night and into the wee hours of the morning, poking the fire and even making music (forming a motley band called Big E and the Sticks)! Todd was an avid traveler. Joda and Todd were enamored with the delights of Cabo San Lucas and Cerritos Beach - the people, scenery and their relaxed culture. If only...uno mas! Funeral Mass for Todd will be held on Monday, April 6, 2015, at 11:30 a.m. at St. Denis Catholic Church, Shiocton. Visitation will be held at the church on Monday from 9:00 a.m. until the time of service. Goodbye our dear Todd (Pinky) you were more than loved and liked by all your family and friends. You are one of a kind (there will never be another Pinky) with your signature strawberry blonde hair and huge heart! Now our hearts are aching and breaking because we will miss your fun nature and pure craziness! You made us laugh and cry. Your infectious smile and beautiful spirit will be sorely missed, particularly when we are in need of a pocket knife, flashlight, hair tie or quarter stick of dynamite. Prayers for your everlasting journey to our savior. Godspeed. In lieu of flowers a memorial fund has been established by the Sommers family and Joda.
