James E. Goodchild, 79, Wabeno, passed away at his daughter's home in Pulaski, on Sunday, September 28, 2014, surrounded by his family.
He was born on June 4, 1935, in Blackwell, WI, to Edward & Irene (Dudley) Goodchild.
James was stationed in Italy while serving in the U.S. Army.
He married the love of his life Lucille Baye on January 11, 1958, at Ss. Peter & Paul Parish in Green Bay.
James worked for Green Bay Public Schools until his retirement in 1990. Upon retirement, he returned to his roots in Northern Wisconsin, settling in Wabeno.
He was an avid lifelong fisherman and hunter. James' recent passion was playing golf, and he was a member of Nicolet Golf Club for many years. He had a love for the Brewers, Packers, Badgers and all sports. Jim was proud that he had attended the Legendary Ice Bowl where he cheered the Green Bay Packers to victory.
Jim was a member of St. Ambrose Parish and the Knights of Columbus of Wabeno.
He is survived by his wife, Lucille; daughters, Connie (Bob) Tease, Pulaski, and Jamie Greeley (fiancé, Jonathan Haymans) Savannah, GA; grandchildren, Joshua and Jacob Tease, Pulaski, Peter Beth III, Green Bay, and Tanner Greeley, Savannah; siblings, Shirley (Ed) Heinsen, Judy McCarroll, and Curt Goodchild.
He is preceded in death by his parents; two sisters, Becky Goodchild and Betty Westenberger.
