Mr. Richard G. Reeb

Richard “Dick” G. Reeb, 90, Green Bay, was welcomed into the arms of Jesus on Friday, October 28, 2022. Dick was born on November 12, 1931 in Green Bay, the son of the late George and Alseena (Coel) Reeb. He graduated from Green Bay East High School in 1949 and worked as a commercial fisherman until being drafted. Dick served his country in the United States Army during the Korean War conflict until his honorable discharge in 1954. On September 15, 1956, he married the former Beverly Poels at St. Patrick’s Catholic Church. He became a machinist at Fort Howard Paper Company where he worked for over 30 years. Retiring early, he dedicated his time to Reeb’s Collectibles, the business he and Bev started and ran for over 30 years. He was a long-time member of the Ashwaubenon V.F.W., the Green Bay Moose Lodge 801, and volunteered for the Ashwaubenon’s Public Safety Citizens Academy. Dick had many interests. He was an avid outdoorsman and enjoyed spending time with family and friends hunting and fishing. Most weekends were spent at the cottage rowing his boat fishing for his beloved largemouth bass and taking on all comers in a game of cribbage or sheepshead. When not up north, you could find him trap shooting, bowling, wood carving, or dancing with Bev throughout the Green Bay area. He was a loving husband, father, grandfather, brother, and friend to many. He will be most remembered for his infectious smile, quick wit, and humorous personality. Dick is survived by his “babe” of 66 years: Bev, one son and daughter-in-law: Michael (Tracy) Reeb, one daughter: Susan Fehrmann (Dan Doescher), three grandchildren: Michelle (Aaron) Breitenfeldt, David (Sara) Reeb, Kayla (Dylan) Baryenbruch, five great-grandchildren: Addison and Logan Breitenfeldt, Avery, Jackson and baby Reeb, Kalvin Baryenbruch, one sister: Mary Lou Reeb. He is further survived by many nieces, nephews, cousins and friends. He was preceded in death by his parents and two brothers: Don and David Reeb. Gathering of family and friends will be held from 9:00 A.M. to 11:00 A.M. on Friday, November 4, 2022 at Nativity of Our Lord Catholic Church, 2270 South Oneida Street. A Funeral Service will be held at 11:00 A.M. with Rev. Matt Simonar officiating. The family would like to offer a warm note of appreciation to the staffs of New Perspective Senior Living and Unity Hospice for their loving care, compassion, and dignity Dick received ~ your kindness will never be forgotten.
