Erwin Froehlich Obituary
Erwin Charles Froehlich, age 56, of Oshkosh, WI, died on 14 Oct 2014, after a long illness. Born in a military family, Win lived in California, Virginia, Florida and Illinois, before his family finally settled in the suburbs of Chicago. There he graduated from Niles East High School. A talented carpenter, he worked in the construction business throughout his life. Win was a naturalist at heart and said that he found God in nature. Above all, he was a fisherman who loved the Wisconsin Rivers. He had an engaging smile, an inquiring mind and a great generosity of spirit.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Erwin and M. Grace Froehlich; his sister, Sheila Weber; and his niece, Cara Weber. He is survived by his sisters: Margaret Edwards, Albuquerque, NM; Maureen Lewandowski (Bill), Kenosha, WI; Julie Froehlich, Oshkosh, WI; and Barbara Finnegan (Tom), Appleton, WI; his two uncles, Philip Lampert (Helen), and Daniel Lampert (Vera), as well as many nieces and nephews.
A Visitation will be held on Saturday, October 18, 2014, from 1-2 pm at Seefeld Funeral Home, 1025 Oregon St. Oshkosh, followed by a Memorial Service.

Win was a Christian, a genius, a gentleman, a son, brother, friend, cousin and a terrific fisherman. He was greatly loved and adored and will be greatly missed. I know he went straight to heaven. I believe he is getting his angel wings this week. I am so thankful to have had him in my life.
With love, Diana Lampert
