Thomas John Krummel, age 77, of Wind Lake, passed away peacefully at his home on May 1, 2025. Born on July 11, 1947, in Milwaukee, WI, to Hubert Joseph and Theresa (Rosin) Krummel, Thomas lived a full and meaningful life.

Thomas dedicated his career to the electrical trade, working as an electrician from 1969 until his retirement in 2011. He was known for his skill, dedication, and strong work ethic throughout his career. Beyond his profession, he had a passion for the outdoors, finding joy in hunting and fishing. He also had an appreciation for classic automobiles, particularly Corvettes, and enjoyed the intricate craft of gunsmithing.

Family was important to Thomas. He was a loving and devoted husband to his late wife, Linda (nee Hudy), who preceded him in death in 1997. Together, they raised two sons, Robert and Kurt (Melissa). Thomas was immensely proud of his family and cherished his role as a father and grandfather to Carson, Clara, and Charlotte. His commitment to his family was his most significant accomplishment. He is also survived by his brother, John (Kris) Krummel, as well as three nieces and two nephews.

A proud Army Reserve veteran, Thomas held a deep respect for those who served and generously supported veterans' organizations. He was also a longtime supporter of Boys Town, reflecting his caring and generous nature.

Thomas was a devout Catholic and a valued member of St. Clare's Catholic Church in Wind Lake. His faith was an important aspect of his life.

Thomas will be deeply missed by his sons, Robert and Kurt (Melissa); his beloved grandchildren, Carson, Clara, and Charlotte; his brother, John (Kris) Krummel; his three nieces and two nephews; and other relatives and friends.

Please join us to honor and celebrate the life of our beloved father and grandfather, Thomas Krummel, on Saturday, August 9th. We will gather at St. Clare's Catholic Church, located at 7616 Fritz Street, Wind Lake, WI. The morning will begin with a meet and greet from 10:00 to 10:45 a.m., followed by a Mass at 11:00 a.m. Afterward, please join us for a luncheon to continue sharing our favorite memories. Your presence would mean the world to us as we come together to commemorate a life well lived.
