Rick Levzow Obituary
September 10, 1957 - January 10, 2025
Rick Levzow, our beloved husband, father, and papa went to be with the Lord on Friday January 10, 2025 after a long courageous battle with cancer. Rick was born to Oliver and Florence Levzow in Portage, Wis. on September 10, 1957. He later graduated from Pardeeville High School in 1975 and went on to graduate Broadcasting School in Wausau in 1976. He married his high school sweetheart, Doreen on September 11, 1976. He spent the majority of his career driving cab and then dispatching for The City Cab Company in Portage which allowed him to do what he did best which was smile, laugh and chit-chat with anyone who wanted to. He also did grounds and maintenance for various apartment buildings. His passion always was all sports but especially baseball and he was his son's little league coach including traveling teams which he truly loved. He is survived by his wife, Doreen of 48 years; daughter, Dawn (Chris) Lowrey; son, Ryan (Amanda King) Levzow; granddaughters, Taylor Levzow, Payton Levzow; grandsons, Blaze Levzow and Nevaeh; also two uncles and cousins. He is preceded in death by his parents, Oliver and Florence Levzow; special grandpup, Tessa and several aunts and uncles. The family wishes to send a special thank you to the staff at St. Clare Meadows, especially Barb, Brittney and Liu for their exceptional care in Rick's final days.
Per Rick's wishes, there will be no memorial service. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to the family. Roseberry's Funeral Home is assisting the family visit www.roseberrys.com for online condolences.
