  Roger A. Patrikus, age 87, of Green Bay (formerly of Clintonville) passed away on Wednesday, March 25, 2015 at St. Vincent Hospital, Green Bay. Roger Anton Patrikus was born on April 9, 1927 to Joe and Selma (Witt) Patrikus at their farm house in the Town of Bear Creek, Waupaca County, just southwest of Clintonville. He attended a local one room elementary school and graduated from Clintonville High School in 1944. Roger went on to UW Madison completing a short course in Agriculture. He was united in marriage on August 8, 1959 to Betty J. Wuske at St. Mary's Catholic Church, Marion. Roger dairy farmed for most of his life on a Century Farm being in the family for three generations. While farming, Roger served as the Town of Bear Creek Assessor for close to 20 years. After retirement the couple moved into Clintonville and in the fall of 2011 they settled in Green Bay to be closer to family. Roger was an active member of St. Rose Catholic Church where he volunteered with the Parish Council and served as a Eucharistic Minister delivering communion to the homebound for more than 20 years. He also dedicated 22 years of his life to serving as a bank director at Dairyman's State Bank, Clintonville. Roger will be remembered most for his wonderful sense of humor, sharing his beautiful smile with everyone he met, and coining the phrase "until we meet again". Survivors include his wife of 55 years, Betty, and two children, Pamela (William) Klumb and David (Kay) Patrikus, both of Green Bay. There are two grandchildren, Steven Klumb and Krista (fiancé William Schomberg) Klumb. There is one sister, Florence Fenske of Oshkosh, one brother, Jerry (Sue) Patrikus of Shawano, and a sister-in-law, Kay Patrikus of Black Creek. He is further survived by nieces, nephews, many other relatives and friends. Roger is preceded in death by his parents, three brothers, Robert, Reuben (Virginia), and Donald, and a brother-in-law, Herman Fenske.
