Telesfore "Ted" P. Wysocki, 79, of New Berlin, WI, entered Eternity on Thursday, August 4, 2022. Ted was born December 17, 1942, in Milwaukee. He was a graduate of Marquette University High School and Marquette University. He received a Master's Degree from UW Whitewater.
Ted served his community of New Berlin in many ways over 38 years, including 11 years as the District 2 Alderman, four years as the Mayor of New Berlin, as well as serving as a member of the Golf Course Commission and the New Berlin Police and Fire Commission. Most recently he served as Waukesha County Supervisor for the last six years. Ted's involvement goes beyond City and County Government. He was a proud veteran of the United States Army and supported other veterans in leadership roles in the VFW Post 5716 and as an organizer of the New Berlin Veterans Memorial. He has been an active member of the New Berlin Lions Club and the New Berlin Senior Taxi. He served on the 128th Air Refueling Wing Community Council and formerly served on the 440th Airlift Wing Community Council. He was named New Berlin's Citizen of the Year in 2019.
In his non-professional life, Ted deeply loved his large family and the times they spent together. He was known as "Bubba" to his seven grandkids and liked nothing more than building rockets, spending time with them and helping them grow up to be the best people they could be. Ted is survived by his loving wife of 51 years, Pat; children, Meg (Steve) Gardner, Joe (Peg) and Laura (Olmy) Olmstead; grandchildren, Jake, Henry, and George Gardner, Charles, Benjamin, and Isaac Wysocki, and Abigail Olmstead; and brother Mark (Dorothy) Wysocki. He was preceded in death by his parents, Telesfore and Genevieve Wysocki, and his sister, Pamela (Jeff) Freitag.
Ted led a full life both professionally and personally. Family and friends are invited to gather at Krause Funeral Home, 12401 W. National Ave., New Berlin, on Saturday, August 13, 2022, from 9:00AM to 12:00PM. Guests may join in the procession to Holy Apostles Catholic Church, 16000 W. National Ave., New Berlin, for a Funeral Mass at 1:00PM. Luncheon will be served at Armeli's Restaurant, 16201 W. National Ave., following the Mass. You are invited to come and share memories of Ted throughout the afternoon. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the New Berlin Veterans Memorial Society.

We want to offer our sincere condolences in the passing of Ted. He was a wonderful, caring servant at all times, and a true ambassador for the City of New Berlin, the Lions organization, and so many other groups. His impact will be long felt and remembered throughout New Berlin, from his service as Mayor, and in Waukesha County as well. We will remember him as always having a smile on his face and a kind greeting for all. He will be genuinely missed.

I worked for Ted as New Berlin Police Chief. Ted was always on top of things and always prepared to do his job as Mayor. God bless Ted and his family.

Prayers for Pat & Ted's family. He will be sadly missed by so many. He truly loved our City and was a friend & inspiration to us all. I worked with Ted for many years at City Hall. I will miss seeing him around New Berlin and hearing him say "Hey Cheryl how are u doing?" and really wanting to know. Our conversations were always followed by a big hug! RIP my friend.

Ted, was always a person I could look up to as an example of what a man should be. The photo above really captures his constant smile. I never heard him say an angry word, or even get mad. He was a model citizen, witnessed by all of his accomplishments and contributions. By example, he made me proud to be an American. He was always such a positive person. I will miss him.

I look forward to seeing you in the future.

Love,
Jim, your brother-in law.
