Robert Delaruelle Obituary
Robert Wayne Delaruelle October 9, 1961 – January 15, 2025
Robert Wayne Delaruelle, age 63, of Crivitz, Wisconsin, peacefully passed away on Wednesday, January 15, 2025, at a local hospital. Born in Missouri to the late Carl and Lois Delaruelle, Robert’s life was a testament to resilience, humor, and a genuine love for others.
A proud veteran, Robert enlisted in the Army at just 17 years old and dedicated 19 years of service. His expertise as a mechanic focused on army vehicles was a testament to his skill and dedication. After his honorable service, Robert’s versatile work history included everything from mechanic work to factory employment, ultimately leading him to a fulfilling career in retail until his retirement in 2016 due to health challenges.
A man with a youthful spirit, Robert was a child at heart who cherished time spent with children and adored his animals. An avid NASCAR fan, he enjoyed the thrill of the race and the camaraderie of fellow fans. His warm personality and sense of humor touched everyone he met.
Robert is survived by his beloved children, Elaine, Sara, and Hogan of Green Bay, WI; his loving fiancée, Donna; his sister, Sherri; and his brothers, Charles (Green Bay) and Kenneth (Pennsylvania). He was preceded in death by his sister, Julie, and his brother, Ronald, from Green Bay, WI.
A celebration of Robert’s life will be held at the New Zoo in Suamico, Wisconsin, 4418 Reforestation Road, on September 20, 2025, (across from the Zoo) beginning at noon. Friends and family are invited to gather, share memories, and honor a man who brought joy and laughter into so many lives.
