Michael John Grebe, age 72, of Menasha, Wisconsin, passed away on December 27, 2025.

Michael was born on October 23, 1953. He graduated from high school in St. Charles, Illinois, and went on to serve his country honorably in the United States Navy from 1973 to 1977. Following his military service, he built a long and dedicated career at Kimberly-Clark, from which he eventually retired.

He is survived by his daughter, Emily (Chad) Mykel, and his son, Jason (Lisa) Grebe; his grandchildren, Haley, Madisyn, Dylan, and Owen; his twin sister, Debbe (Joe) Reckinger; his brother, Mark (Lois) Bauernfeind; and his sister, Diane Young. He is also survived by his nephews, Dan and Steve (Amanda) Reckinger, his niece, Christy Laczynski, and many other family members.

Michael was preceded in death by his parents, Edgar and Ruth Grebe, and his son, Anthony Grebe.

Michael enjoyed staying connected with former coworkers and friends. He also looked forward to his Friday morning breakfasts with his cousins and friends.

A celebration of life will be held at a later date.

My heart breaks for all of you. I loved my Friday mornings with him, at McDonald´s, and will miss him. As a second cousin (I think) it was nice to reconnect with family. Sending you all big hugs
