Wyatt Russell Veitch

July 14, 2001 - June 7, 2025

Wyatt Russell Veitch, 23, of Eau Claire, passed away on Saturday, June 7, 2025.

Wyatt was born to Mark Veitch and Terri Bunce, on July 14, 2001, in Eau Claire. He grew up in Chippewa Falls and graduated from Chi Hi in 2019. After high school, Wyatt began working for Lippert (Curt) Manufacturing and was currently employed at Pember Construction. Wyatt and his brother, Landen, were the best of friends; they had a bond like no other. Wyatt loved life, being surrounded by great friends. He had a love for hunting, shooting guns, and riding motorcycles, and tattoos. Wyatt was someone you could always count on; he enjoyed spending time with family and friends. Wyatt's love for concerts, especially Rock Fest; his exact words would be, "Can you believe they throw this party for me every year," as his birthday coincided with that weekend. He was the most amazing man and will be greatly missed by all that knew him, especially his "baby" pup, Ela.

Wyatt is survived by his parents, Mark Veitch (Lyric Wenk) of Eau Claire and Terri Bunce-Veitch of Chippewa Falls; his brother, Landen Veitch of Eau Claire; his sisters: Hillary Bell of Eau Claire, Hallie Bunce of Eau Claire, Megan Veitch of Eau Claire; bonus sister, Elody Boos; bonus brother, Logan Shemick; aunt, Marci (Jason) Yeager; uncle, Eric Bunce; step-aunt, Jessie Kramer; grandparents: Ernie and Angie Bunce of Eau Claire, Mark and Lisa Veitch of Oxford; great-grandma, Praxie Bunce; cousins: Ethen Bunce, Talon Yeager, Taye Yeager; as well as many more cousins and friends.

He is preceded in death by his grandma, Terri Woodcock; and grandma, Patti Bunce; great-grandparents: Russel and Sophie Woodcock, Duane (Bud) Bunce, Donna Peterson, and Rollie Veitch.
