Obituary
Gertrude Drozdowski passed away peacefully at Brook Gardens in Lake Mills on February 25th, 2017.
Gertrude was born January 1, 1925 in Iron River, Michigan. After high school, Gertrude moved to Detroit, Michigan where she continued her education. She was employed at Rockwell International until she retired at the age of 54. Gert enjoyed travelling, playing golf, spending time with family. She was a devoted Green Bay Packer fan. She was a fond lover of animals and talked about her dog Topsy often who she had for 17 years.
In 2009 Gertrude moved to Lake Mills to be closer to family and enjoyed spending time with her family every day reminiscing. Gertrude always had a sunny disposition and made everyone laugh!
While in Iron River she was an active member of St. Agnes Catholic Church and attended St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church in Lake Mills.
She is preceded in death by her parents, John Drozdowski and Helen Orbick, brothers, Ted, Edward and John, sister, Dorothy, and nephew, Jim.
Gert will be greatly missed by her three special nieces Diane Larrabee, Peggy McGrath, and Jane (Robert) Weber. Her great nephews and nieces: Eric (Tammy) Markgraf, Curt Markgraf, Kevin (Alexandra) Markgraf, Katie (Nic) McGrath, Roxanne (Keith) Comstock, Jared (Alison) Weber, Rachel (Josh) Pederson, Megan Larrabee, and Logan Larrabee. Great-great nephews and nieces: Liam, Owen, Kaya, Gracyn, Page, Emily, Katie, Kyle, and Isabel Elaine and many special friends
.
Gertrude will be laid to rest beside her parents and sister in Resthaven Cemetery in Iron River, Michigan
A private burial will take place at a later date.
