Thomas P. Leigl

Thomas P. Leigl


   Thomas P. Leigl passed away on Thursday, April 20, 2023, peacefully at home surrounded by his favorite people in the world, his loving wife and two daughters. Tom battled pancreatic cancer for over a year with grace and courage.    Tom was born on November 5, 1953, to Phillip and Mary Jane Leigl of Mayville. He lived and worked in the Mayville and Brownsville area throughout his life.    Tom’s joy in life came from his passion for hobbies such as golfing, trips to the Northwoods, sitting by a campfire and walleye fishing, he even held the nickname Walleye King! Although he would probably tell you he did more fishing than catching. Tom was a funny guy; he told a lot of great jokes and kept his sense of humor to the very end.   His greatest joy, however, came from his family; he loved his family more than anything else in life. Tom spent 46 years married to his greatest love, Debra, whom he married on June 11, 1977. Tom and Debra enjoyed traveling, concerts, walking and just being together. Tom would often say how lucky he was that Debra picked him to share her life with; their love was something so very special.   Those Tom leaves behind will miss him so greatly, they include his loving wife, Debra; daughter, Jessica (Ryan) Toellner and daughter, Danica, (Brian) Lause; also his three grandchildren, Charlotte, Willis and Jack. He is further survived by his siblings, Patrick Leigl, Michael Leigl, Kathleen (David) Lynch, Patricia Leigl and also mother-in-law, Jeanine Streblow and sister-in-law, Doreen (Tom Schnaderbeck) Streblow.   Tom was preceded in death by his parents, Phillip and Mary Jane Leigl, and father-in-law, Raymond Streblow.    Funeral services will be held on Thursday, April 27, at St John’s Lutheran Church in Mayville at 1 p.m. with Rev. Phillip M. Enderle and Rev. Dr. Mark G. Cutler officiating. A visitation will be held on Thursday, April 27, at the church from 11 a.m. to the time of service at 1 p.m. Burial will take place at St. John’s Cemetery in Mayville. A meal and gathering will follow at The Meating Place restaurant at the Mayville Golf Course.    The family would like to thank the nurses and caregivers from Promedica Hospice that helped care for Tom with such care and compassion.

Ronald L. Margelofsky

Ronald L. Margelofsky


   Ronald Lee Margelofsky, 82, of Kaukauna passed away peacefully on Wednesday, April 12, 2023.   Ron was born August 20, 1940, in Mayville, the son of Frederick and Irma Margelofsky. Ron graduated from Mayville High School in 1958 and from the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater in 1962.   On August 24, 1963, Ron married Susan Hayward, and they made their home in Kaukauna.    In January, 1963, Ron began his teaching career at Kaukauna High School, where he taught business education until his retirement in 1997.

He enjoyed golfing and his Thursday morning breakfast club with his longtime friends, and he brought joy to many with the treats from his garden. Mostly, Ron could be found in the bleachers supporting his nine grandchildren in whatever activity they participated. And that meant he had a variety of options including football, basketball, baseball, volleyball, soccer, cross country, softball, water skiing, and marathons. He travelled thousands of miles every year to be at as many events as he could! He also enjoyed treating the whole family to Brewers and Timber Rattlers games and tailgates.    Ron is survived by his three children, Cindy (Hank) Moen of De Pere, Scott (Dominic) of Wauwatosa, and Mark (Liza) of Bonduel; and nine grandchildren, Stacy Nehring of DePere, Tyler (MacKenzie) Nehring of Marco Island FL, Molly (Marcus) Ruch of Neenah, Emily Moen of DePere, Jake Moen of Madison, Aaron Margelofsky of Indianapolis, IN, and Brett, Colin and Mary Sue Margelofsky of Bonduel; his first great-grandchild is expected in September.

Robert “Bob” Jerome Trevarthen

Robert “Bob” Jerome Trevarthen


   Robert “Bob” Jerome Trevarthen, 59, of Mayville, died after a third and courageous battle with Chondrosarcoma cancer on March 25, 2023.    Bob, as called by all who knew him, was born the youngest of three brothers, on July 17, 1963, to Irene and Thomas Trevarthen in Norway, MI. He was an altar boy at St. Mary’s Church in Norway, MI. Bob graduated from Norway High School in 1981. He eventually went on to study law enforcement at Northern Michigan University.   After graduating from college, he began working for Dickinson County Sheriff's Office in Michigan before attending the Fox Valley Technical College Police Academy. Bob then began working at the Mayville Police Department from 1990 to 2005, when he retired due to his battle with Chondrosarcoma.    Throughout his career as a police officer, he created many friends (and a few foes), many of them known to be victims of his outlandish tales and shenanigans. Even after retirement, the police department wasn’t safe from Bob’s jokes. He would frequently spend time at the department drinking coffee, chatting about life, and reminiscing.     Bob raised two wonderful boys, Michael and David. He prided himself in being a great father. Whether he was cheering on the boys in sports, band, or other activities, Bob always made an effort to be there. They loved spending quality time together, whether for deer season at their cabin in Norway, MI, or going out to breakfast at various places. Both men followed in their father’s footsteps to become law enforcement officers. Some of Bob’s favorite times were sitting with them and discussing their recent adventures and activities while policing.    December 5th, 2015, Bob pulled his biggest scheme yet and convinced Ronnie to marry him. They enjoyed spending their days together. Whether watching the news, monitoring the birds outside the window, or traveling to various places, he always kept things interesting. They loved to travel to Michigan together to visit family, or spend time at the cabin that Bob built in Norway, MI.    Bob wore many titles throughout the years: husband, dad, brother, friend, police officer, coach, hunter, Knights of Columbus and, perhaps his most well-known title, master storyteller. Even on the hardest days, he would be known to put a smile on his face, and yours, by reminiscing on his past adventures. Please take time to tell some of your favorite stories today, for Bob.    Bob is survived by his wife, Veronica “Ronnie” Trevarthen; brothers, Terrance Trevarthen, Thomas (wife, Ellen) Trevarthen; his children, Michael (wife, Hannah) Trevarthen, David Trevarthen (girlfriend, Amanda Eilbes); step-sons, Frederick Jolin, Charles (wife May Ann) Jolin; mother of his children and ex-wife, Diane Trevarthen (fiance, Greg Krinke); many other family members, his loving friends, and colleagues from the Mayville Police Department.    Bob was preceded in death by his parents, Irene (Merlo) and Thomas Trevarthen; maternal grandparents, Louis and Mary (Gallinatti) Merlo; fraternal grandparents, Gideon and Margaret (Goheen) Trevarthen.    A Mass of Christian Burial will be held on Thursday, March 30, at 12:30 p.m. at St. Mary Catholic Church in Mayville with the Rev. Fr. Joe Dominic presiding. Visitation will be held on Thursday, March 30, from 10 a.m. until the time of the service at 12:30 p.m. at the church. Burial will take place at Norway Cemetery in Norway, Michigan.    The family would like to extend a special thank you to the dedicated staff of Froedtert Hospitals in West Bend and Milwaukee, as well as Kathy Hospice in West Bend.   The family would like if you would make donations in Bob’s name to any of the following organizations: The American Cancer Society, Baggin’ for a Cure, or your local police department.   Koepsell Funeral Home in Mayville is serving the family. www.KoepsellFH.com
