Bruce P. Langreck

Bruce Patrick Langreck passed away peacefully on February 23, 2018, at the age of 59. Bruce was born October 17, 1958, the son of Delbert and the late Leona (nee Wasserburger) Langreck. He found his lifelong love in Judy Timm and they married on March 23, 1991. The Lord blessed the couple with two sons, Nicholas and Kyle, who enriched their lives immeasurably. Bruce graduated from Neillsville High School in 1977, and continued his education at Wisconsin Indianhead Technical Institute in Rice Lake, Wisconsin. He worked for several years in the telecommunications industry in the state of Kansas and then in Appleton, Wisconsin. Bruce met Judy while they each attended the University of Wisconsin – Fox Valley, then graduated in 1992 from the University of Wisconsin – Oshkosh. He went on to have a rewarding career in Information Technology employed by the Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Company for over 25 years. Bruce’s passions were his faith, family, and hobbies. Bruce was an active member at First Immanuel Lutheran Church in Cedarburg where he served as a Stephen Minister, Worship Assistant, and Men’s Club member. He welcomed the opportunity to share God’s love, including his time volunteering at the Milwaukee Rescue Mission. Bruce enjoyed the outdoors through camping, hiking, sailing, biking, canoeing, snowshoeing, and skiing. He loved doing all of these activities, as well as playing board games, in the company of his beloved family, and made a lifelong priority of spending time with them. Bruce is survived by his loving wife, Judy, and sons, Nicholas and Kyle. He is also survived by his father, Delbert (LaVada) Langreck of Loyal; brother Bernie (Margaret) of Mercer; sisters Becky (Neil) Steirer of Hartland and Betty Jo (Kris) Smith of Neillsville; mother-in-law Caroline (Leonard) Guthu of Waupaca; brothers-in-law John Timm, Joe (Asta) Timm, and Jeffrey (Dawn) Timm; and many kind relatives and friends who remained close to him during his journey with ALS. Bruce is preceded in death by his grandparents; his mother, Leona; and father-in-law, Lee Timm. The funeral service will be held on Thursday, March 1, 2018 at 6 p.m. at First Immanuel Lutheran Church, W67 N622 Evergreen Blvd., Cedarburg. The family will receive visitors at the church from 3 p.m. until 5:45 p.m. The family is grateful to the staff of Heartland Hospice of Wauwatosa for their loving care and support.
