Jerry Van Abel, Hollandtown, age 47, passed away unexpectedly on Monday, January 11, 2010, following a brief battle with cancer. Jerry was born in Kaukauna on May 17, 1962, son of the late Will and Duff Van Abel, and was currently a partner in the family business, Van Abel's of Hollandtown. Jerry enjoyed outdoor activities, including, hunting at "the farm", fast-pitch softball, whiffle ball and skiing. Drawing and reading were also favorite ways he spent his free time. Everyone will remember Jerry for his passion for fishing - he loved the river, and had countless "secret" fishing spots along its banks that he knew so well. Most of all, he enjoyed time spent with his three children. He is survived by his children: Kyle Van Abel and Dean Van Abel, both of Kaukauna, and their mother Lisa Van Abel; and Roslyn Van Abel of Appleton and her mother Paula (John) Mobley. He is also survived by his brothers and sister: Tim (Nancy) Van Abel of Hollandtown; Jane (Gary) Marx of Scandinavia; Mike (Diane) Van Abel of Kaukauna; John "Gus" (JoAnn) Van Abel of Menasha; and Patrick (Kristie) Van Abel of Darboy; and several special cousins: Patricia and Charlie Lindberg, Sue Van Abel, Katie Coenen, and Joan Van Abel. There are also many nieces, nephews, other relatives, and many friends. Jerry was preceded in death by his parents, Will and Duff Van Abel. The funeral liturgy for Jerry will be held at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday, January 16, 2010, at ST. KATHARINE DREXEL PARISH (Hollandtown Site) with Fr. Willard Van de Loo officiating. Interment will be in the parish cemetery. Friends may call directly at the church on Thursday afternoon from 2:30 p.m. until the hour of the service. In lieu of flowers, a memorial fund is being established. The family would like to offer their sincere thanks to entire staff at St. Elizabeth Hospital and to the various care givers who watched over Jerry. We will always remember your kindness.
