Visit the Wichmann Funeral Home - Tri-County Chapel website to view the full obituary.

Nancy Lou Zoelk, age 69, passed away on September 9, 2025, at her home. She was born in Neenah, WI on September 30, 1955, to the late Daniel and Anne (Jensen) Zoelk. She lived in Neenah for her entire youth and graduated from Neenah High School. She later attended St Joseph School of Nursing and received her Diploma in nursing. Nancy then proceeded to work as a psychiatric nurse for Theda Clark in Neenah as well as at Winnebago Mental Health Institute. Nancy retired from nursing to care for her mother.

Nancy enjoyed visiting with friends, sharing a meal and a laugh. The primary goal of gathering with her friends was shopping-the lunch and laughs were just a side benefit. Indeed, her true hobby was shopping, and she would often spend time with others watching QVC.

Nancy is survived by many cousins and other relatives and friends.

She was preceded in death by her parents Daniel and Anne Zoelk as well as her sister Paula Zoelk.

Family will gather for a graveside service on Wednesday September 17, 2025, at 10:00am Oak Hill Cemetery in Neenah.

In lieu of flowers please consider a donation to the charity of your choice in her memory.
