  Day, Stanley Thomas "Tom" Stanley Thomas "Tom" Day, 67, De Pere, passed away Saturday August 1, 2009, at home, surrounded by his loving family. The son of the late Stanley and Irene (Komp) Day was born June 10, 1942. Tom was born in Appleton; his father owned a cheese factory and then moved to De Pere to own and operate Day's Bar and Family Restaurant. Tom attended Nicolet Grade School, West De Pere High School where he was active in theater and played drums. He then went to Carroll College where he was President of his Fraternity, Delta Rho Upsilon. Tom was a graduate of the Masters Program at UW Oshkosh, majoring in guidance and counseling. After college, he began his teaching career at Seymour. Throughout this time, he dated Phyllis Bouchard and they were engaged on June 9, 1965, and were married June 18, 1966. They purchased their home in 1965 and have raised their children and grandchildren since that time. Teaching was his life and he enjoyed every minute of it. He taught in the Seymour School District, mostly at the Middle School. In 1967, he became the father of a bouncing baby girl, Kari - on whom the sun rose and set - then 8 years later the birth of his first son, Sean, and shortly after, the birth of his second son, Aaron. He had many vacations at Pelican Lake with the Bouchard family and his father purchased a home on the lake as well, where Tom would spend the entire summer. Tom, his brother-in-law, Allan and his father-in-law, Gordon, caught three muskies on Pelican Lake all in the same day and when they got home, they were featured on Channel 2 with Big Al Sampson filming the three muskies for TV. These vacations continued a tradition throughout the children's lives as it does today in the grandchildren's. They have made new friends and continued that relationship since they were all babies. This year, Tom wanted to go on vacation and so we did - Tom even got his perch! Tom led a full life, and mostly enjoyed his grandsons, family vacations and fishing on Pelican Lake, vacations to Mexico, his beloved teaching, his pets, Sparkie and Spritzer, watching Jeopardy, Soduko, and doing jigsaw puzzles. Tom's family includes his wife of 43 years, Phyllis, their children: Kari Day, De Pere; Sean Day, De Pere; Aaron (Tara) Day, Green Bay; grandchildren: Quinton Thomas Day and Zavion Thomas Day; stepmother, Catherine (Renard) Day, stepbrothers: Gerald and Anne Renard, Seymour; Thomas and Tess Renard, Holman, WI; sisters and brothers-in-law: Alice (James) Todey, Green Bay; Barbara (Dale) Schmechel, Green Bay; Robert Thompson, Arizona; Mae Willems, De Pere. In addition, Tom is also survived by his godchild, Tina (Bouchard) Kemp, nieces and nephews, and his good friends, William "Bill" Menne and Nancy and Pete Blashka. He was preceded in death by his parents, Stanley and Irene Day, brother, Donald, sister and brother-in-law, Elizabeth "Betty" and Richard Willems, godson, Timothy Willems, parents-in-law, Gordon and Helen (Schmechel) Bouchard, brother-in-law, Allan Bouchard, and step brother, James Renard.
