Eldon E. Wulff, 87, passed away surrounded by his loving family at his home, Monday, February 23, 2015.
He was born on November 18, 1927, the son of the late William and Alida (Clausing) Wulff, and raised on the farm in Thiensville. On November 25, 1950, he was united in marriage to Arlene Klumb. Pastor Gerhard Kaniess officiated the ceremony at St. Lucas Evangelical Lutheran Church in Kewaskum.
Eldon graduated from Cedarburg High School but never stopped learning. He was a self-made engineer and a farmer. On April 15, 1994, he retired from C.F. Struck Corporation in Cedarburg, yet his mind and hands kept working for many years. Eldon was a devoted member of St. Lucas Evangelical Lutheran Church in Kewaskum.
Eldon leaves many behind to cherish his memory, his beloved wife of 64 years, Arlene; five children, Linda Wulff (Roger Plumb) of Beaver Dam, Cheryl (John) Wozniak of Port Washington, Nina Wulff (Larry Laux) of the town of Genesee, Kevin Wulff of Mayville and April (Andy) Tetlow of Austinburg, Ohio; a daughter-in-law, Jennifer Daul of St. Paul, Minnesota; two brothers, Merlin (Winnie) Wulff of Australia and Dale (Georgene) Wulff of Adell and special friend Sue (Dave) Flasch. Eldon was blessed with 17 grandchildren and one great grandson, many nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.
In addition to his parents, Eldon was preceded in death by a son, Scott Wulff; a brother, Vernon; and Vernon's wife, Joyce Wulff.
