Arnold J. Enz Sr.'s Obituary
Arnold Joseph Enz Sr., passed away peacefully at his home on Monday, April 5th at the age of 75, surrounded by loved ones after a tenacious 19-year battle with prostate cancer. He was born on June 3rd, 1945 to Elmer and Rose Enz in Green Bay.
He married Susan Hoelzel at St. Gabriel's Catholic church in Neenah, Wisconsin on February 8th, 1964 and had four children: Sarah, Arnold Jr., Jeffrey, and Jill.
Arnold was committed to seeing things through. He rose from a machine operator to the superintendent of the finishing department of Neenah Paper Whiting-Plover. He obtained his degrees in Philosophy and History while maintaining a seven-day work week schedule at Neenah Paper. He enjoyed the unconditional love of many dogs throughout the years, he was passionate about ancient philosophy, and he found joy in restoring old sports cars. Through participation in medical research and mentorship, Arnold supported other men on their prostate cancer journeys. Arnold helped shape a world that is more adept at fighting prostate cancer.
He leaves behind his wife, his four children and his nine grandchildren.
A private ceremony on the farm will be held with family at a later date. In honor of the loving dogs who took their turn at Arnold’s side, donations can be made to the Waupaca Humane Society.
