Lucille Daley Obituary

Lucille M. Daley,(nee Doberneck)Lucille was reunited for eternity with Bill, her husband of 62 years, on August 20, 2023. She was born on August 28, 1933, and grew up in Shorewood, WI, attending St. Robert's Grade School and Holy Angels Academy High School. She continued her education at Marquette University, and after graduation, became an elementary school teacher. As a story goes, while walking home from school in perhaps 3rd grade, she threw a snowball at her neighbor, Bill, and missed, but their lives were forever entwined. They married after college and settled in South Milwaukee. Together Lucille and Bill raised sons Terence (Terry) and Brian, and while Lucille stopped formally teaching, she tutored adults in math and English, both near home and in Milwaukee. While not a fan of camping, she sacrificed her comfort for Bill and (probably more likely) the boys, and together they spent a lot of time living out of a pop-up camper. The family moved to Menomonee Falls, and both parents supported their boys' school sporting events. Around that time, Lucille and Bill started cross-country skiing and bicycling as fun ways to stay active. They went on many Elderhostel tours and saw and learned a lot about our country and world. Later in life, Lucille volunteered at Good Shepherd Congregation making sleeping bags which were donated to homeless shelters. She is survived by her brother Ray (Ann - deceased) and was preceded in death by Bill, and her parents Alphonse and Frieda (Kopp). She is survived by sons Terry (Kathy) and Brian (Judy), granddaughters Anne (Michael), Mary, and Martha (Chris), and great-grandchildren Jocelyn, and Thaddeus (Teddy). Visitation will be held at GOOD SHEPHERD CATHOLIC CHURCH, N88 W17658 Christman Road, Menomonee Falls, on Tuesday, November 21, 2023, beginning at 9:00 AM followed by the Mass of Christian Burial at 10:00 AM. Interment will be at Holy Cross Cemetery in Milwaukee. We support your wishes to ensure maximum safety and comfort by providing a dedicated section for distancing.
