F. “Tony” Michlig, age 75 of Edgar, was welcomed into Heaven on Monday afternoon, August 3, 2015, after a long battle with health issues.

Tony was born July 25, 1940 in the Town of Cassel, the son of the late Frank and Delaphine (Nowak) Michlig. He married Rosalie Lang on August 5, 1961 at St. Patrick’s Parish, Halder, WI.

As a young boy, he played the drums for the family band “The Wisconsin Oilers”. Tony dairy farmed for much of his life and in 1979 he began growing ginseng, which he enjoyed very much. He also enjoyed going for breakfast, socializing, playing cards with neighbors and friends, deer hunting, gardening and was active within the church.

He was loved by all and will be greatly missed.

His grandchildren: Sonya (Mike) Green, Becky (David) Wright; Melanie Kulas; Rachael (Joe) Schimmels; Tim (Tatjana) Michlig; Rakel and Katrina Mata. Tony is further survived by: 14 great grandchildren; one great-great granddaughter; two sisters: Frances (Norbert) Lang and Evelyn (Jerome) Schara along with many other relatives and friends.

Tony was preceded in death by his parents and one brother Leo.

A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated at 11AM on Friday, August 7, 2015 at St. Patrick’s Catholic Church in Halder. The Rev. Felix Tigoy will officiate with Rev. Jerome Patric concelebrating.
