Kermit W. Franzen

Kerm was a high school class mate and was 3 days older than I was. He was a great high school athletic. He will be missed by several of us who played sports with him in high school, that I have spook with since hearing of his death. Sorry to hear of his passing.

Kermit was a colleague of mine for many years at the Wisconsin Department of Transportation. He was kind, thoughtful, conscientious and liked by everyone. His passing leaves an empty spot for so many of us who knew, worked. with him, and appreciated him. Our condolences go out to the family; be assured we will hold Kermit in our thoughts and prayers, Rest in peace, old colleague and friend, Fred Ross

Kerm and Marlyn were our neighbors when we moved onto Dahlk Circle. Kerm was already retired but seemed like he was constantly in motion tending his apple trees or planting flowers. After a few years Kerm invited us over on the first Saturday in May for their ceremonial mint julep with, of course, home grown mint. We plan to honor Kerm this May 2 by toasting him with a mint julep. Our condolences Mark and Karyn. Pam and Eric Birschbach
