Vern Engebretson Obituary

Vern F. Engebretson age 84 of Clear Lake, WI, died surrounded by his family, on Sunday May 7, 2023 at the Glenhaven  Nursing Home in Glenwood City, WI . 

 

Vern F. Engebretson was born on March 17, 1939 in Reeve, WI  the son of  Ingval & Grace (Thomas) Engebretson.  He grew up in the Reeve area and graduated from Clear Lake High School in 1957.  Vern was married to Beverly R. Lillie on February 4, 1956 in Clayton, WI.  Together they made their home in Clear Lake, WI  and raised 4 children, Sherry, Mindy, Julie and Steven.  Over the years, Vern worked as a milk hauler, a banker, insurance salesman, and a tour bus and school bus driver.  In his spare time, he enjoyed bowling, golfing, snowmobiling, camping, hunting and fishing.  Vern was also active in the community as a scout master and in his Lutheran faith.  He was especially proud of his work with the Masons, the Scottish Rite, and the Shriners serving as Potentate for the State of WI in 1993.  Vern will be sorely missed by his  family and many friends.

 

Vern is preceded in death by his wife Beverly;  daughter, Sherry;  his parents, Ingval & Grace Engebretson;  

sisters,  Marie VanBlaircom, Francis Denley, Virgil Rothe & Doris Voltz.
