Patricia Ann Kluck, 86, of Custer was accepted into the arms of the Lord on June 5, 2025, following her battle with cancer. Pat was born in Custer, WI to Joseph and Clara (Dziedzic) Kulas on June 1, 1939. She grew up with her brother Eugene and attended local country schools. She moved on to Maria High School in Stevens Point, then transferred to Rosholt High School. She graduated from Rosholt in 1957. Following High School, Pat met Archie at a ballroom during one of the many local dances. They were wed at Sacred Heart Church in Polonia on August 13, 1960.
Pat and Archie shared 64 years of marriage together enjoying area church picnics dancing to polkas, traveling to various countries around the world with Archie's Brother Larry and Sister-in-Law Gladys, and raising 5 amazing children. Pat was proud to be a Farm Girl and instilled hard work ethic in her children as well. Pat was highly involved in Sacred Heart Catholic Church. She was members of the American Legion Auxiliary, Parish Council of Catholic Women (PCCW), Church Choir, many Church Picnic Committees, as well as contributing to many other church events. Pat enjoyed gardening, cooking, hosting family holidays, and winning many card games of "31". Everyone knew they did not have a chance winning those quarters if she were at the table. Pat also enjoyed extended family gatherings and spending time with her children, 13 grandchildren, 3 great grandchildren and was overjoyed at the recent arrival of the 4th great grandchild. To Pat, family were friends, and friends were family. She was strong in her faith to the end, with her husband and oldest son at her side.
Patricia is survived by her loving husband Archie and 5 children David (Joanne) Kluck, Marilyn (Douglas) Kreuser, Sharon Gostomski, Jim (Heather) Kluck, and Jessica (Jeff) Hoffman. Pat has 13 grandchildren- Eric, Laura, Matt, Rachel, CJ, Jaclynn, Brooke, Derek, Hailey, Jonathan, Anna, Jakob and Caleb. Pat also has 4 Great Grandchildren- Ian, Calla, Madalyn and Aubrey.
Pat was preceded in death by her parents Joe and Clara Kulas, her brother Eugene Kulas, Brothers-in-law Allen Kluck and Larry Kluck, and Son-in-law Keith Gostomski among other extended family.
The family extends heartfelt gratitude to the staff of Marshfield Clinic Stevens Point Cancer Center, Palliative Care, Home Health Services, as well as the doctors, nurses, and staff at Marshfield Medical Center in Marshfield. Their compassion and care made a difficult time more bearable.
