Renee Ruzicka

Renee Ruzicka, 55, passed in her sleep on April 1, 2025. 

She joins her predeceased parents Marion and Richard Ruzicka. She is survived by brothers Rick, Rob (Pam), and Ross (Stacy); nieces Becky (Wally), Shelly (Luis), and Samantha; and grand niece Reese. 

Her family, friends, and housemates will miss her joyful energy, huge smiles, and seeing her run up to give big bear hugs. Renee enjoyed family visits, going out to eat, playing her Pac-Man game, having her hair braided, and working at Pantheon Industries.

Renee was about to celebrate 34 years at Prader Willi Homes. Her family wishes to thank all the staff at Stepping Stone Home and Hanson House for their care and dedication. Special thanks to Sabina who was like a mom to Renee, and Fidel for fixing her hair so it was not, as Renee liked to say a "hot mess". Her family also sends appreciation to the staff at Pantheon and Day Rise. A big thank you to the nurses and doctors in the ICU at Aurora Medical Center in Wisconsin for the kindness she was given in her delicate condition.

Renee’s memory will live on in chocolate chip pancakes, fuzzy socks, stickers, and big warm hugs.

Services will be private. Memorial contributions may be made to Stepping Stone Group Home, P.O. Box 278, Dousman, WI 53118
