Andrew Timothy Rupnow

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Andrew Timothy Rupnow, a beloved son, who left us on March 11, 2025, at the age of 42. Andrew was born on July 10, 1982, in Oconomowoc, WI, to parents Tim and Karen Rupnow.

Andrew brought love and joy to all the lives that he touched. His passions were simple yet profound; Andrew loved car rides, music, and attending Christian concerts, where his eyes lit up with joy. He found peace in quiet moments, and content just to watch movies or a favorite television show. Most of all, Andrew liked the gentle touch of holding someone’s hand just knowing someone was by his side and he was not alone.

One of many highlights in Andrew’s life came in 2001 when he had the opportunity to visit Disney World, creating memories that filled his heart with joy. He also attended Bethesda Day Services in Watertown from 2006 thru 2020, where he enjoyed going on outings and spending time with friends and staff.

Andrew lived a very quiet, happy and content life but found peace in his Heavenly Father's arms after a sudden but brief hospital stay. He is survived by his mother, Karen; aunt's and uncle's, Linda and Glenn Leidel, David Lauber and Kay DePrisco; loving cousins, Jennifer, Angie, Nick, Travis, Michael, Emily, Max and Kira; along with many loving 2nd cousins, family and friends.

He is preceded in death by his father, Tim; brother, Benjamin; grandparents, Paul and Nancy Eggers and Franklin and Elsie Rupnow; aunts and uncles, Peggy Lauber and Bradley Eggers; and cousin, Blake Eggers.

Memorials to St. Paul's Lutheran Church in Oconomowoc in Andrew's name are welcome.

A visitation will take place on Friday, March 21 at St. Paul's Lutheran Church (210 E. Pleasant St., Oconomowoc, WI 53066) from 9:30am-11:00am, followed by a service. Andrew will be laid to rest at Glenview Memorial Gardens in Ixonia.
