Visit the Helke Funeral Home and Cremation Service website to view the full obituary.

Lynn M. Guth, 82, of Wausau, entered into rest on March 11, 2025.

Lynn was born October 6, 1942, in Wausau, to the late Norman Sr. and Margaret Beilke. She took pride in working at Peoples State Bank for over 30 years. She was an avid fan of John Wayne movies and musicals. She had a deep faith and was a member of St. Stephen's Lutheran Church. Lynn had a special bond with her only grandchild, Courtney, teaching her Yahtzee and King's Corners, having tea parties and watching movies together. As Courtney grew older, Lynn helped teach her how to drive with her behind-the-wheel hours. More than anything, Lynn was extremely proud of her family.

Lynn is survived by her daughter, Jamie Binder; granddaughter, Courtney (fiance Kou Yang) Binder; sisters-in-law, Marie Beilke and Clara Beilke; special cousin, Donald Beilke; and numerous nieces and nephews.

She is preceded in death by her parents; brothers, Norman Beilke, Melvin Beilke, David Beilke and Arnold Beilke; and sisters-in-law, Marilyne Beilke and Patricia Beilke.

A service will be held Thursday, March 20, 2025, at 2:00 pm at Helke Funeral Home, 302 Spruce Street, Wausau with Rev. Karoline Schwantes officiating. Visitation will begin at 1:00 pm until the time of service at the funeral home. Lynn will be laid to rest in Pine Grove Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in memory of Lynn to St. Stephen's Lutheran Church.

Our family wishes to thank the staff at Mount View Care Center for their kind and compassionate care as well as the palliative care unit of Aspirus Wausau Hospital.
