Robert Treu Obituary
December 23, 1940 - September 26, 2025
Writer, Teacher, Storyteller and Friend. Just before dawn on September 26, Bob Treu passed away peacefully at Riverside Transitional Care. In addition to being an English professor at UWL for 37 years, Bob was an active member of the community, a wonderful friend to many, and a devoted grandfather. Bob, your spirit will remain strongly held in the driftless heart of La Crosse, where you will be forever missed.
A public Celebration of Life and poetry reading will be held Sunday, Oct. 5, 1 to 4 p.m. at the Nature Place, 789 Myrick Dr. More details at CouleeCremation.com.
