Obituary:
Boyd William Grimmer, age 77, died unexpectedly on July 22nd, 2015 to be with his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Boyd was a kind, gentle, loving man, strong in his faith. He lived his life in a selfless manner, being an example of love and kindness by his actions rather than simply his words. If you asked him, he would not hesitate to share God's Word with you.
Boyd was born on February 22nd, 1938 to Merton and Dorothy Close in Wausau, Wisconsin. He was raised in Appleton by his mother Dorothy Grimmer and his stepfather Willard Grimmer. He graduated from Appleton West High School in 1957. Boyd met the love of his life, Carol Merkel, in high school, and they were married on May 9th, 1959. They had five children: Michael, Thomas, John, David, and Lisa. Michael, John, David, and Lisa all have married and blessed Boyd and Carol with 8 beautiful grandchildren.
Boyd served in the Marine Corps Reserves. He went on to work as a mail carrier for thirty-seven years and dearly enjoyed interacting with the many people on his route before his retirement in 1998. He also worked part-time for many years at Bohl and Maeser Shoe Store to help provide for the family. After retirement, Boyd enjoyed the simple things in life, loving and caring for his wife and family. For a number of years in his early retirement, he was a thoughtful caretaker for his mother and mother-in-law. He was an integral part of his Clark Street neighborhood, always willing to lend a helping hand. He enjoyed getting up early to have coffee and sit in a chair or swing outside to watch the glory of a new day in a peaceful setting. He would then carry on with life's responsibilities in a slow, easy fashion for the rest of the day. Boyd enjoyed the routine of a walk to Starbucks almost daily to have coffee and read.
Boyd is survived by his wife Carol of fifty-six years; his children: Michael and his wife Ginger, John and his wife Dale, David and his wife Margaret, and Lisa Britton and her husband Andy. He is also survived by his in-laws: Debbie and Pete Loughrin, Connie Merkel, Paul Brown, Harold Fromm and Mary Alice Merkel; his grandchildren: Lindsay, Chelsea, Sarah, Nicole, Kate, Eric, Ben, and Marina; and by many beloved nieces and nephews.
Boyd was preceded in death by his infant son Tommy, father Merton Close, mother Dorothy Grimmer, stepfather Willard Grimmer, sister Sandra Fromm, father-in-law Ivan Merkel, mother-in-law Ethel Merkel, brother-in-laws: Ron Merkel and Gary Merkel, and sister-in-law Lois Brown.
A Memorial Mass will be held at 11:00 AM, Tuesday, July 28, 2015 at St. Pius X Catholic Church (500 W. Marquette St), with Rev. Thomas Farrell officiating. Friends may visit the family at the church from 9:00 AM until the time of service on Tuesday.
