Rita Tyman Obituary
Rita was hard-working and compassionate. She owned Tyman's Old Oak Bar and Supper Club and worked at other establishments in the Gordon, Wisconsin area. Rita continued her working career in Oshkosh and retired from Piggly Wiggly and Bethel Home.
Even though she was a hard worker, her family always came first. Rita supported her children through their academic careers and family lives, and was always cheering on and adoring her grandchildren. She served the church and lived her Catholic faith actively throughout her lifetime.
Rita loved to stay busy and had many talents, including cooking, baking, sewing, knitting, and rooting for the Brewers. She also enjoyed calls and visits with her family, especially from her grandchildren.
She is survived by: daughter, Linnea (Everett) Brock, Cave Creek, Arizona; daughter, Jill Tyman, Hudson, Wisconsin; daughter, MaryBeth (Jim) White, Oshkosh, Wisconsin; son, Robert (Tracey) Tyman, Elk Mound, Wisconsin; grandchildren, Jacqueline (Matt) Shore, Garett (Megan) Brock, Jordan (Kendra Muldbakken) Brock, Anika (Nick) Hammer, Cole (Lauren Scharlau) Tyman, Qwynn (Logan Giere) Tyman, and Tessah Tyman; great-grandchildren, Ben and Sam Shore; Lila, Cade, and Thea Brock; Ellie Hammer. She is also survived by sisters, Virginia (Frank) Pickar and Cathy Dandrea; and many nieces and nephews.
Rita was preceded in death by her parents, and brother, Bernard Adee.
