Terry C. Tugel

Terry C. Tugel,

of West Bend, peacefully passed away surrounded by his loving family on February 16, 2024, at the age of 79. Terry was born in Omaha, Nebraska on July 17, 1944, to his late parents, Carl Tugel and Freda (nee Antisdel). He was blessed with two children, Tammy Tugel and Chris Tugel.

Terry grew up in Iowa and graduated in 1962 from Corning High School in Corning, Iowa. In 1977, he moved his family to Wisconsin. Terry began his career in the grocery store business. His success in that industry led to him working in the wholesale food service industry. Because of Terry’s work ethic, he became sales manager, regional manager, and eventually, vice president of operations. He truly loved his work and eventually retired, but he would have loved to still be working. Terry’s true passion was sports. He loved watching all the games, especially his Packers, Brewers, Bucks, and Iowa Hawkeyes. He was interested in politics and was loyal to his party. Terry’s faith led him to Holy Angels Catholic Church in West Bend where he spent every Sunday.

Terry is survived by his two children, Tammy (Chris), and Chris; his beloved grandchildren, Tyler (Bri) Sharbuno, Zach (Meghan) Sharbuno, Austin Sharbuno, and Megan Tugel; great-grandchildren, Lily Sharbuno and Colson Sharbuno; sister-in-law, Vicky Tugel; nephew, Derek Tugel; cousin, Nancy (Paul) Antisdel; and cousin-in-law, Judy Antisdel. He is further survived by many friends and family.

Terry is preceded in death by his parents, Carl, and Freda. Along with his brother Jake Tugel, grandparents, an aunt, an uncle, and one cousin.

A Mass of Christian Burial for Terry will be held at Holy Angels Catholic Church (138 N 8th Avenue West Bend, WI 53095) at 11:30 AM on Saturday, March 9, 2024, with a visitation from 9:30 AM to 11:15 AM at church. In lieu of flowers, memorials to the family are appreciated.
