Obituary For Jake Ryan Woelffer

Jake Ryan Woelffer passed away unexpectedly on Friday, January 13, 2023, at the age of 28. He was born in Madison, WI on February 8th, 1994, to Tracy Woelffer. Jake had a special bond with his grandfather, Robert Woelffer, who he absolutely adored. He had an epic love for animals and the bond he had with his dog, Mary Lou warmed his mother’s heart. Jake’s other interests include music of all genres, video games, sports (Go Badgers!), and muscle cars. He was a proud and adoring father to his son Marshall. Jake was a beautiful soul who was very tuned in to his spirit.

Survivors include his mother, Tracy Woelffer; his son, Marshall Woelffer; mother of his son, Shannon Frey; Thomas Dusterbeck, who was Jake’s father figure and played a very special role in Jake’s life, and other friends and relatives. Jake had many friends that were dear to his heart.

    RIP Jake. Thank you for the fond memories that we together shared throughout the years. From the random late night car rides, lauging and listening to music to the late night conversations we shared. I will miss you more than I even can explain. You will always hold a very special and large place in my heart and I'm forever grateful for Marshall and the great memories that we shared spending time all together. Lots of love from me and your son Marshall.

what our families say

Tiffany Foster went out of her way to fulfill all my requests, talked me through problems I was facing, and tried to make me feel as comfortable as possible when I was a wreck, totally crushed, and I thank her with all of my heart for that.

James S. | July 2020

The professional manner of the staff made a difficult time a little easier.

Lynda R. | July 2020

Services provided for both parents were perfect, on time, and no issues. Brenda is awesome and strong!

Michael M. | July 2020

Skyler was absolutely amazing. She was so caring and helpful through this whole process. She even went above and beyond to meet with us in DeForest and even to make a stop at our home to drop off or pick up anything needed. While it was a small gesture, it was so helpful and greatly appreciated.
