Gary Joseph Hoell

November 12, 1941 — November 8, 2022

Sheboygan

 

Gary Joseph Hoell, age 80, died peacefully at St. Nicholas Hospital in Sheboygan on Tuesday, November 8th, 2022, surrounded by his loved ones. Gary was born November 12, 1941, in Sheboygan, WI to Alois and Marie (Haindl) Hoell. He attended Holy Name School just as his children and grandchildren would one day attend. He then went on to graduate from Sheboygan Central High School in 1959 and chose a senior quote that holds the same light-hearted wit he would be loved by: “Handsome is that handsome does”.

On February 23rd, 1963, he was united in matrimony to Charlotte “Char” Hamann. Together, they had four boys: Paul, Peter, James, and John. They lived and raised their sons together in Sheboygan, WI. Throughout the many years of bringing up their boys and beyond, Gary was always known to remark to Char, “Yes, Dear”.

Gary worked for many years as a Journeyman Glazier at Sheboygan Glass where he displayed a large knack for problem solving and bringing people together — so much so that he would take on the role of Shop Supervisor for the final ten years of his career. He retired at the age of 64.

Gary was a prominent member of Holy Name of Jesus Catholic Church — a place he loved to share in worship with his family. He also enjoyed spending time with loved ones, hunting with his boys, dancing polka with Char, telling clever stories from his many adventures, admiring Char’s lush garden, and sharing his love for food with others.

Gary wishes to be remembered by his never-ending love for life, his wife Char, and his family.

Gary was survived by his wife Char and his sons, Dr. Paul (Kristine), Peter (Anne-Marie), Dr. James (Christine), and John (Kelly). He is further survived by his twelve grandchildren: Dr. Marissa (Sean) Oberstadt, Caitlin (Matthew) Fedie, Logan, Connor (fiancée Kelsey), Zachariah (Grace), Madeleine “Madi” (special friend Christian), Alexandria “Alex”, Josephine, Charles “Chaz”, Macie, Bodie, and Emmit; step-grandchildren Kelsie and James Fedie; great-grandchildren Garrett and Simon; brother Thomas “Tommy”; and sister-in-law Shirley Hoell, nieces, nephews, and other relatives and friends.

He was preceded in death by his parents, siblings: Alois “Sonny” (Dorothy), William “Bill”, Marion (Jerry) Leisner, Lucille (James) Van Deelen, and Rosemary (Richard) Hermann.  

A Mass of Christian Burial will be held on Sunday, November 13th, 2022 at 4 :00 PM at Holy Name of Jesus Catholic Church, 818 Huron Ave. Sheboygan, with. Father Norberto Sandoval officiating. Gary will be laid to rest at Calvary Cemetery at 10:00 AM on Monday, November 14th, 2022. Relatives and friends may visit with the family on Sunday, November 13th, 2022 from 2:00 PM until the time of mass at the CHURCH.  If you are unable to join the family for the service, it will be live streamed on Gary’s obituary page on the funeral home website.

In lieu of flowers, a memorial fund is being established in Gary’s name.

Gary’s family would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to Dr. Mark Bettag, his exemplary staff and the kind nursing staff at St. Nicholas Hospital for their continued support and care.
