Steven Buchli Obituary

Published by Legacy on Oct. 31, 2025.
Mr. Steven (Stubby) Buchli, age 63, of Pittsville, was recently diagnosed with cancer, and passed away Sunday evening, October 19th, 2025, while in home hospice care.
He retired only one year ago, and the family is deeply saddened and shocked by his sudden death. Steve was born February 19th, 1962, in Ladysmith, WI. and raised in Pittsville, graduating with the Class of 1981. He was the son of Mrs. Charlotte Buchli of Pittsville, and the late Mr. Roland Buchli.
Steve was preceded in death by his father, Roland; son, Rollie; and nephew, Nicholas. He is survived by his mother, Charlotte; two wonderful daughters, Ms. Rachel (Nate) Garvey, from Wausau, WI and Ms. Stevie (Chris) Buchli of Glencoe, MN; five grandchildren, Xavier, Evan, Chris, Rollie & Jaxen; and six siblings, Kevin (Tamara) of Macon, GA, Randy (Tammy) of Rice Lake, WI, and Wendy (Roger), Susan (Jeff), Rick, and Becky (Jim), all from Pittsville.
Steve enjoyed a number of hobbies and was an avid motorcyclist and proud owner of his cherished Harley Davidsons. He was a social guy, enjoyed a fun party, and had many great friends. He will be sadly missed by all who knew him, including his dog, Nixon.
A celebration of life will be held from 4-8 PM, on Saturday, November 8, 2025, at the Pittsville Community Hall.
