  Don DeGoey, Kimberly, passed away unexpectedly at home on January 25, 2017, at the age of 72. He was born in Appleton on October 13, 1944 to the late William and Margaret (Wurl) DeGoey. Don married Geraldine Watry on May 2, 1964 at St. John Nepomucene Catholic Church in Little Chute. Together, they moved to Kimberly where he lived the rest of his life. Don worked at the Kimberly mill for 42 years, retiring in 2005. In addition to being a loving husband, father and grandfather, Don was a fun-loving friend to all who knew him. He was an avid fisherman, hunter and golfer and cherished teaching these pastimes to his grandchildren. Don loved gathering with family and friends, especially hosting the De Goey family Christmas. He was also a huge Packer and Badger fan. Don spent as much time as possible up north in Lac Du Flambeau, WI, a town that always was his second home from an early age.
