Carl Gerald Rolf

Carl Gerald Rolf, 88, passed away on February 11th, 2026 in Zephyrhills, Florida. Carl was born on March 9th, 1937 to his parents Bernard and Ethel Rolf in Kaukauna, Wisconsin, being one of nine children.

Carl had an eclectic professional career. He began his schooling at Fox Valley Technical College, and then worked as a chef, a trucker, a limo driver, before his final career as a weaver at Asten Johnson, from which he retired.

He absolutely loved music and dancing, and was an avid follower of Polka and Country. He also loved to camp, fish, and going out to eat, preferably with his dear family. Additionally, Carl was an absolute die hard Packers fan. But more than anything, Carl loved his children and grandchildren, dancing with them and spending quality time with them.

Carl is preceded in death by his parents, Bernard and Ethel Rolf; his siblings, Robert Rolf, Bernard Rolf, Clifford Rolf, Charles Rolf Sr., Mardelle Kamke, Margaret Murphy all of Wisconsin, and Lee Rolf of Illinois.

He is survived by his children, Alethea Rolf, Tammy (Mark) Kerkhoff, Donald (Beth) Rolf of Wisconsin, Wendy (Craig) Jaeger of Florida, and Wade Rolf of Wisconsin; his sister, Evelyn Quever of Wisconsin; his grandchildren, Heather House, Joey (Amber) Strong, Becky Kappell, Jeremy (Ebony) Becker, Rebecca (Tyler) Creviere, Melissa Huynh, Ashley Rolf, Rachel Hillegas, Cory Hillegas all of Wisconsin, Amanda Hillegas of Nebraska, and Cayden Jaeger of Florida; his great-grandchildren, Damon Breanna, Zayden, Hope, Paige, Brayden, Carver, Caitlyn, Skye, Kira, Lily, Luna, Nathan, Dustin, Journey, Calvin, and Blake all of Wisconsin, Raelynn of Washington, McKenzie of Virginia and Lilliana of Nebraska.

Lots of nephews and nieces and many friends.
