Thomas S. “Tom” “Quag Meier” Meier, age 61, of Lancaster, passed away on Monday, October 6, 2025, at St. Mary’s Hospital in Madison, WI. He was born on May 14, 1964, in Prairie du Chien, the son of LaVerne and Norma (Myers) Meier. Tom graduated from Cassville High School in 1982. He furthered his education at Southwest Wisconsin Technical College in Fennimore where he earned a degree in auto mechanics. Tom moved to Madison and worked as an auto mechanic and later, in 2013, moved back to Lancaster. He worked as an over the road truck driver and finished his working career at Saputo. Tom enjoyed riding his motorcycle and would often take spontaneous trips hundreds of miles away. He also enjoyed hunting, fishing and watching the Green Bay Packers. Tom dearly loved spending time with his siblings, nieces, nephews, great-nieces and great-nephews. He was always willing to lend a hand and always had a smile and a positive outlook. Tom will be greatly missed.

Survivors include his siblings: Gary (Barb) Meier, Deforest, Mark (Kathleen) Meier, Asbury, IA, Mike (Cheryl) Meier, Beetown, Sheila (Randy) Hook, Phillips, Jan (Ken) Breuer, Lancaster, Kim (Randy) Wallin, Lancaster, Tony (Janell) Meier, Glen Haven; many nieces, nephews, great-nieces and great-nephews; other relatives and many friends.
