Mary Flegel Obituary

Mary Jean Flegel, age 72 passed away unexpectedly in her home in West Allis, Wisconsin, on September 27, 2024. Born on October 15, 1951, in Green Bay to Joseph and Josephine (Ratajczak) Flegel, Mary's gracious spirit and nurturing disposition were evident from her early years. She dedicated her life to the service of others, initially as a compassionate Registered Nurse—a career she embarked upon after graduating from Holy Family Hospital School of Nursing.

Mary's caring nature led her to work as a Registered Nurse and devoted caretaker for her mother and two aunts, Hattie and Frances. Her love for animals and the tranquility of farm life was a testament to her gentle soul and hard-working dedication. 

Mary is survived by her brother Joseph Flegel and his wife Bonnie, her nephews Weston (Amy) Flegel and Lucas (special friend Nicole) Flegel, and great-nephews Jayden and Trey Flegel. Further survived by her great niece Arizona Flegel.

Visitation will be held on December 17, 2024 from 10 AM until the time of Mass at 11 AM at St. Francis of Assisi Parish (Marshall Site - 2109 Marshall St., Manitowoc, WI 54220).
