John’s dedication and passion for farming was shown daily by the great care he took in everything he did. He started out farming with his father, then his brother, and most recently his grandson. Many unforgettable memories about the time spent together as a family will never be forgotten by all who knew and loved John. John was an avid Wisconsin sports fan. He enjoyed deer and pheasant hunting, as well as trout fishing along with biking.   John is survived by his loving wife, Lynn; his son, Wesley (Pamela) Wrucke of Evansville, IN; his daughter, Tammie (Jeffery) Koenigs of Horicon; grandchildren, Joshua (Kendall) Wrucke, Jodi (Justin) Schraufnagel, Joseph (Elsa) Gerth, Connor Wrucke, Christian (Caleb) O’Brien; four great-grandchildren, Jasper and Jordy; John and Margaret; and brother, Steve Wrucke.
