Frank Reimer Obituary
Kaukauna - Frank D. Reimer, Kaukauna, age 38, passed away on Sunday, September 29, 2019 at ThedaCare Regional Medical Center in Appleton surrounded by his family. His untimely death was due to health complications caused by a bee sting. He was born in Freedom on April 9, 1981, son of Frank Reimer and Laurie (Van Boxtel) Wyngaard. Frank was employed as a millwright at Ahlstrom Munksjo (Thilmany) in Kaukauna where he was a staunch backer of the United Steel Workers Union and served as a past treasurer. He was an avid outdoorsman and loved hunting, fishing, four wheeling and beekeeping. Frank took his dream trip to Alaska this summer. His enthusiasm as a Packer and Brewer fan was second to none. Family and friends knew Frank for his big heart and willingness to help anyone who needed it. He was loyal and dedicated; always true to his convictions.

My deepest sympathy to Frank, Debbie and the rest of the family. I was lucky enough to work with Frank at G2 Paper. He was quite the prankster and a joy to work with. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him.

Keith, Laurie, and family,
I still remember babysitting for Frank in the years your family was in transition. He was a great kid with a big heart. I am so sorry to hear this news. Sounds like he worked hard to make this world a better place. May you find peace in the memories you shared. Keeping you all in my thoughts and prayers.

So very sad and tragic that Frank lost his life due to a bee sting. I am allergic to bee stings and must go to the hospital immediately otherwise I will not survive. For Frank to be a beekeeper and die from a bee sting possibly from one of his bee's makes his passing even sadder. Thoughts and prayers to Frank's family, friends and coworkers
