Obituary

CROSS PLAINS - Lee Stephen Mayrack, age 81, of Cross Plains, passed away on Tuesday, October 15, 2024, at William S. Middleton Memorial Veterans Hospital. He was born on April 18, 1943, in Stevens Point, the son of John and Beatrice (James) Mayrack.


Lee graduated from P.J. Jacobs High School in 1961. He studied at UW-Stevens Point and received his associate’s degree in residential design from Wausau Technical College in 1964. Lee proudly served in the U.S. Army. He worked as a realtor for over 50 years and was awarded as the top builder 20 times, from the Realtors Association in the Midwest. He later had his own company, Lee Mayrack Enterprises, LLC.


Lee was a faithful member of the American Legion Post No. 245 for 40 years (16 years as treasurer) and a member of St. Martin Lutheran Church. He was very social and took pride in his community, volunteering for many events. He was an avid outdoorsman and enjoyed hunting, fishing, boating, snowmobiling and golfing. He also liked bowling and will be fondly remembered for his love of dancing to "The Tail Feather."


Lee is survived by his daughter, Sandra (Matt) Nardini; granddaughters, Aria and Winter Nardini; sisters, Trudy (John) Campbell and Pat Walkush; brother, John (Cara) Mayrack; many nieces and nephews; and special long time caregiver and friend, Christi Weeks and her children, Alyssa Weeks (Seton Sheafor) and McKenzie McNeal and their children, Kory and Koen Sheafor, and Dashlynn and Brentley Henthorne; and close friend, Willy Hellenbrand. He was preceded in death by his parents, John and Beatrice; son, Troy Mayrack; and brother-in-law, John Walkush.


A celebration of life will be held at ST. MARTIN'S LUTHERAN CHURCH, 2427 Church St., Cross Plains, at 11a.m. on Saturday, October 19, 2024, with the Rev. Maggie Anderson Peterson presiding.

Remember Lee for his social visits to my parent's bar. Great guy who would help anyone if needed. He will be missed and a void now is left in Cross Plains. Rest with your friends in Heaven.

Each of my aunts and uncles hold a special place dear to my heart. I’ve been reflecting on many memories of our family visits to WI growing up. I can vividly remember sitting around the kitchen table at Uncle Les’s home listening to the many stories being shared, especially fishing and hunting stories with my dad. I can still hear their voices and laughs. Time to share more stories with each other in heaven! We will miss you!
