Roy M. Meulemans

November 3, 1948 — December 4, 2021

Roy Michael Meulemans, age 73, passed away peacefully on Saturday, December 4, 2021, at St. Luke’s Medical Center in Milwaukee surrounded by his family after a brief illness. He was born on November 3, 1948, in Wrightstown, WI son of the late Herman and Marion (Vandenberg) Meulemans.

Roy graduated from Wrightstown High School, Mercy Hospital School of Nursing in 1975, and Mercy School of Nurse Anesthesia in 1977. He married Bonnie Ferris on August 6, 1977. Bonnie and Roy moved to Midland, Michigan where Roy started his career at Midland Medical Center as a Nurse Anesthetist. Roy and Bonnie moved back to Oshkosh in 1979 where Roy worked at Mercy Medical Center and then Aurora Medical Center caring for patients for over 40 years until his retirement in 2018. Roy and Bonnie raised their two sons in Oshkosh, WI on the soccer fields, ice arenas, and golf courses around the state. He was actively involved in the Oshkosh United Soccer Club where he was the Tournament Director for many years and was a board member for the East Central Soccer District.

Roy was an avid sports fan especially his Green Bay Packers and was a season ticket holder. He was known to regularly tell and retell his infamous story of stealing Vince Lombardi’s hat following the Ice Bowl.

After retirement Roy enjoyed his Wednesday golf league at Utica Golf Course, floating in their pool reading his Kindle, and traveling to warm locations like Puerta Vallarta, Ixtapa, and Aruba. When not traveling, Roy and his loving wife Bonnie enjoyed their time together going out to dinner and planning their next trip to visit their grandkids. Roy and his family regularly spent weekends at Wisconsin Dells, enjoying fishing, the water parks, and getting a burger at Monks before heading home. Roy also enjoyed watching his grandchildren play sports, game nights playing Clue, Monopoly, Cribbage and Chess, cutting grass, and going on long walks with his grand dogs Jaxson, Ollie and Frankie.

Roy is survived by his loving wife of 44 years, Bonnie; two sons: Ryan (Nicole) and Shaun (Terri), four grandchildren: Addison, Bennett, Ty, and Zac Meulemans; sister, Dorothy; brother, Gerald (Doris); and many other family, friends, and colleagues. He was preceded in death by his parents, Herman and Marion; and brothers: Vince, Ken, Arlyn, and Don.

The family would like to thank the ICU staff at Aurora Oshkosh for their hard work and care they provided to Roy during his stay with them.
