Richard M. Dabringer

Richard M. Dabringer, age 76 years, of Germantown was called home to be with the Lord on February 10, 2021 at Froedtert Menomonee Falls Hospital surrounded by his loving family.

Richard was born on March 28, 1944 in West Bend to Robert and Lillian Dabringer (Wilger).

Richard worked at the Threshold until he retired. In retirement he enjoyed his time at Senior Day Services doing activities and taking trips.  He was an avid walker and in his younger days could be seen briskly walking around West Bend. Richard enjoyed food and a good cup of coffee. One of his favorite hobbies was cooking, especially chili and chocolate chip cookies.

Those who knew Richard were blessed by the way he was able to enjoy the simple things in life. He helped us realize the joy in a delicious home cooked meal, spending time with family, and appreciating a nice day.

Those Richard leaves behind to cherish his memory are his brother, Leroy (Roseanna) Dabringer. He is further survived by nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends.

In addition to his parents, Richard was preceded in death by his brother, Robert (Viola) Dabringer; his sister, Rosemary (David) Merkt; a nephew, James Dabringer; and niece, Susan Merkt.
