His great-grandchildren are Macy, Mallory, Stella, and Enzo. Wenz is also survived by his sisters-in-law: Terri Hoefler and Dorothy Dietzen; and a brother-in-law: Daniel Weyenberg. He was preceded in death by his parents, brothers: Jerome, Werner, and Edwin; sisters: Olive Schinke, Lucille Kilgas, Agnes Lemmers, and Virginia Samuels. Dolores' family has also gone before. Her parents were Chris and Lena (Bies) Gerig, also Raymond Stoffel, Kathleen (Donald) Dietzen, Lucille Weyenberg, and Norbert Dietzen. The funeral liturgy for Wenz will be held at 11:30 AM Friday, June 2, 2017 at ST. KATHARINE DREXEL PARISH - St. MARY CHURCH, 119 W 7th Street in Kaukauna with Fr. Jerry Pastors officiating.
