Dennice “Doll” C. Kujawa, age 67 of Clintonville, passed away Sunday morning October 1, 2023 at her home with her loving husband by her side.

Dennice Carolyn Kujawa was born December 14, 1955 in Milwaukee, WI, daughter to the late Hans & Clara (Walecki) Ruediger. She was a well-known bartender in the Bay View area for many years, later working in Franklin, WI at “Jim Henry’s” on South 27th street. Dennice was united in marriage to David J. Kujawa on May 13, 2000 in Milwaukee. Dennice and Dave were owner-operators of Dennice & Da’Nephew Tavern in Cudahy, WI in 2002 for about a year. She later worked for various establishments tending bar and had a great, outgoing personality which made her excellent at working with people. The couple moved to Clintonville about nine years ago to enjoy retirement. Dennice was always quick with a good “clean” dirty joke to brighten someone’s day; and will be remembered as a sweet and helpful person to her friends, family, and neighbors.

Brother: James (Dorothy) Ruediger, Muskego
