Gary Edward Sipiorski

Gary E. Sipiorski, age 73 of Clintonville, passed away early Thursday morning, August 14, 2025 at his home with his loving family by his side.

Gary Edward Sipiorski was born June 16, 1952 in Clintonville, son to the late Roland & Mildred (Bosdeck) Sipiorski. He attended Clintonville Schools and later graduated with the class of 1970. Gary was united in marriage to Gloria Kay Zuhse on August 11, 1973 at St. Martin Lutheran Church, Clintonville. The family grew to four as they welcomed their daughter, Wendy and later, a son, Jason. Gary had a few careers over the years, but worked for and retired from the City of Clintonville after 21 years as a wastewater operator. He served his community by joining the Wisconsin National Guard. Gary was very particular about keeping items he owned in good shape. His home, shop, vehicles, boats & campers were all cleaned and maintained diligently. The vehicles and campers were washed and waxed regularly, and if the kids wanted to borrow the car, it had to be washed and topped up on fuel when returned. He loved the outdoors, especially fishing and had owned many boats over the years; he also hunted a bit. Camping with his family was something he looked forward to. As a young couple, they camped in tents, but over the years made their way into travel trailers while visiting many places around Wisconsin, the U.P., and Canada. Gary never missed his children or grandchildren’s sporting events, and as a result followed the Truckers, Mustangs, and of course the Packers. A very gifted wood worker who loved working with his hands, Gary completed major projects around his home, and crafted hundreds of birdhouses over the years. The joke was that Gary never had to worry about sharing his beer, a fact true of many Blatz Light drinkers. Always available with a helping hand, he was very giving of his time helping others. He knew how to work hard and play even harder.  

Gary is survived by his loving wife of 52 years, Gloria
Children: Wendy (John) McIntee, Marion & Jason (Stacey) Sipiorski, Brookfield
Grandchildren: Jackson Krohn, Parker & Tanner Sipiorski
Siblings: Roland (Mary Lundin) Sipiorski, Dennis (Donna) Sipiorski, Robert (Linda) Sipiorski, & Connie (Pat) Mitchell

Gary was preceded in death by his parents, and his brother-in-law, Brian Zuhse.
