Patrick Dennis Page

Patrick Dennis Page, 81, passed away Tuesday, July 25, 2023, in Wausau, Wisconsin. Patrick was born July 4, 1942, to Lamont and Marie (Weigle) Page in Eau Claire, Wisconsin, the third of four children. He graduated from Regis High School in Eau Claire, Wisconsin and went on to get an undergraduate degree from UW Eau Claire and finished his masters in psychology at UW Menominee.

 

In 1965, Patrick began his lifetime career of teaching in Baldwin, Wisconsin. Two years later, in 1967, he started teaching psychology at Mosinee High School, where he stayed until he retired in 2002. He loved teaching and started the peer support program at Mosinee High School, along with coaching football and counseling the students. Along with his teaching career, he loved golfing, hunting in the pheasant club with his beloved dogs, visiting his many friends in the Wausau area and helping kids by counseling them through a county program. Fishing was always something he enjoyed and traveling to Eau Claire to watch his alma mater UW Eau Claire Blue Golds too.  He had the gift of making students feel comfortable coming to him for help and his door was always open. He took pride in his career and was proud of his students.

 

Patrick is survived by his daughter, Jamie; brother, Lamont (Lori) and sister, Roxy Kurtzweil; several nieces and nephews, too. He is preceded in death by his parents; sister, Bonnie; nephews, David and Danny.
