Fond Memories of our FRIENDS:
Spiro Alecos | Michael Beyer | Mary Jo Davis | Robert Gossar
Patrick Sean Loker, age 47, passed away peacefully on Sunday, February 20, 2022, surrounded by his family and loving wife, Lexie. Pat was born on May 9, 1974 in Arizona to Judy and Arden Loker. He was the “Baby” of the family, with three older siblings. He married his best friend and love of his life, Lexie on May 15, 2009.
Pat is survived by his loving wife, Lexie; brother, Bryan (Ellen) Loker; sisters: Lisa (Joe) Boyce and Lorie (Tony) Alvarez; in-laws, Gary and Julie Pagel; brother-in-law, David (Rachael) Pagel; and many nieces, nephews, cousins, and countless friends. He was preceded in death by his parents, Judy and Arden Loker; and father-in-law, Bob Deising.
Pat was one of a kind who dropped everything to help those in need. He had a sarcastic sense of humor and some pretty unique dance moves that never failed to entertain.
He loved boating, golfing, hanging out at Slades, time spent up North at the Loker Lodge, and, of course, his fur babies.
We love you and will miss you terribly, “P.”
A Celebration of Life will take place on Friday, February 25, 2022 at Far Vu Golf Course, 4985 County Road R., Oshkosh, from 3:00 p.m. until 8:00 p.m.
Oshkosh, WI - JJason M. Gelhar, age 46, passed away on Wednesday, February 24, 2021. He was born in Oshkosh on September 27, 1974, the son of Michael and Kathy (Trudeau) Gelhar. Jason graduated from Oshkosh West High School in 1993 where he met the love of his life, Angella. He and Angie were married on April 25, 2003, in Oshkosh, WI
Jason worked at Wisconsin Digital Imaging as a Digital Products Specialist, but to those that knew him best, he would rather have been out on the golf course, hunting with his buddies, or spending time at the Gelhar family cabin. Jason was always someone who you could count on to have a laugh with, share a dirty joke, or shoot the breeze. He was someone who loved his family, loved his friends, and loved life.
Jason is survived by and his memory will be cherished by his loving wife Angella, son Camden (his beloved Lindsey Kloiber), and daughter Emma; his parents Mike and Kathy Gelhar; his sister Trista Gelhar Groth (David); father-in-law and mother-in-law John and Janet Miller; sister-in-law Laurajane Evich; nephews Carson, Dayne, and Mason; and many aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends.
Jason's sudden loss leaves us all with a void in our hearts, but more importantly he leaves us better people just for knowing him and sharing his friendship and love. He lived a wonderful life, especially as of late, with his family, and they will be forever grateful for him. We love you Jason.
A private family service will be held at Fiss & Bills-Poklasny Funeral Homes in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. A celebration of Jason's life will be held at Far Vu Golf Course in Oshkosh, WI in the spring, with the date yet to be determined.
Appleton - Darcie Marie Hinds, 46, quietly left this crazy world Sunday morning, January 10, 2021. Born Sept. 13, 1974 at Mercy Hospital, Oshkosh, she was the middle child of Donald D. and Mary L Hinds, currently Fairfield Glade, TN. She had a lovely apartment in Appleton, but due to declining health for the last several months, had been a resident of Crossroads Care Center, Weyauwega, WI.

She went on to Perry Tippler Middle and West High School with the class of '93, later attaining her GED and earned a LPN from Fox Valley Tech. Known for her infectious laugh, Darcie had a great spirit, spunk and fire! She enjoyed participating with friends at Richard's School of Dance. Over the years, she battled many addictions; She quit alcohol; She quit smoking. But, how does one quit food? Even after becoming disabled, she continued to help people. Until her hands no longer cooperated, she sewed things like infant gowns for still born babies. For eight years she worked the crisis intervention hotline for Winnebago County at Summit House, Oshkosh. Until they closed, Darcie worked as a CNA for nine years at Shelter Village, Ripon, a facility that cared for developmentally challenged people of all ages. There she cared for resident Robert Morris. "Bobby" was a handful for the rest of the staff, but not for Darcie. She could communicate with him like no other. Darcie applied and became Bobby's legal guardian. Her big heart saw his needs were met and included him in her family. At the age of 58, he went to join the angels very early Christmas morning, 2012. Bobby and Darcie's older sister, Dawn will welcome her to Heaven, as well as Victor, Darcie's silly cat. Darcie is survived by her parents; brother, Dustin D. Hinds, Allenville, WI.
