Sebastian Caravella Obituary
Milwaukee - After a long fight, at the age of 69 years, Sebastian was Born to Eternal Life and found peace on September 19, 2020. He was the loving husband extraordinaire of Barbara (nee Schiek). Sebastian is preceded in death by his parents Joseph John Caravella and Rose Mary Balistreri, and his sister Jeanne as well as her husband Dick Emery.
Sebastian is survived by his beloved children Sebastian Jr. (Roxanne), Anthony (Melissa), Benjamin (Angela), and Matthew (Angel). Dear Nonno of Taren, Anthony, Nicco, Elizabeth, Alexis, Gianna and Joey. Further survived by his brothers John (Sandy), Joe (the late Judy), Tom (Mary), and sister Rosemary (Tom). Further survived by numerous nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends, and we can't forget his precious four legged sidekick that he adopted: Shadow.
Sebastian was proud to have served in the Army during the Vietnam War. Later, he was just as proud to be a part of the Medical College of Wisconsin as Computer Operations Supervisor for 16 years. Along with hunting and fishing, one of his favorite pastimes was discussing politics, and of course - Go Pack!
The family would like to thank the dedicated Doctors, Nurses and Aides in the Transplant Unit and ICU at Froedtert & The Medical College of Wisconsin for the support and comfort that they provided.
Visitation will be on Thursday, October 1, 2020 from 10:00 AM until time of Funeral Service at 12:00 PM at Krause Funeral Home, 21600 West Capitol Drive, Brookfield, Wisconsin. Burial and Military Honors to follow at Wisconsin Memorial Park. Masks are mandatory.

Dear Sebastian, Tony, Ben, and Matt, I’m so sorry to read about the loss of your dad. One of my favorite memories is of your dad at my wedding reception. He was sitting at a table with his dark sunglasses on and some of my guests thought he was some kind of a body guard for the Bernardi family. Wish I still had that photo. You all hold a special place in my heart.
