Myron (Mike) Loose was welcomed into heaven on October 30, 2020, after succumbing to
complications of COVID-19.
Mike was born to Milford and Rufina (Lau) Loose on September 2, 1936. He was baptized and
confirmed at St. John St. James Lutheran Church in Reedsville. He graduated from Reedsville
High School in 1954. He proudly enlisted in the United States Marines Corp and served from
1954-1957.
Upon returning from service he met the love of his life, Laone (Tuddy) Meyer. They were
married on April 11, 1959, at Maple Grove. The Lord blessed them with 61 years of marriage,
two daughters, and six grandchildren.
Mike was always quiet and humble and loved his family deeply. For many years, he enjoyed
family vacations to their cabin in Pembine, and he always loved a good game of sheepshead.
Mike was happiest when attending his grandchildren’s sporting events or treating them to a
meal and then slipping them some cash to help them enjoy life a little more. He will be a
Grandpa who is greatly missed. Mike was a member of St Paul’s Lutheran Church in Howards
Grove for over 50 years. He attended faithfully each week and served as an usher and on the
stewardship committee; he was a role model of Christian faith for his family and friends.
For decades, Mike worked at Consolidated Freightways and was a member of the Local
Teamsters. Eventually he began a career in maintenance from which he retired in 2000 after
working twelve years for Sheboygan County.
Mike is survived by his loving wife, Tuddy and daughter Holly (David) Clappes and their children
Megan Sixel (Adam Dircz) Jacob and Luke and his daughter Kelly (Brian) Stauss and their sons
Zachary and Derek. He is further survived by his brother Donald (Jeannette) Loose, sister
Marlene (Jerry) Lemke and brother Randall. He has many nieces and nephews who will miss
their much loved uncle.
He was preceded in death by his parents, a grandson, Gerad Sixel, a granddaughter Lily Stauss
and many beloved brothers and sisters in law.
A private, family only service will be held at St Paul's Evangelical Lutheran Church in Howards
Grove on Saturday, November 14, 2020. A committal with military honors will follow at the
cemetery.
Due to Covid-19 restrictions, the service will be livestreamed on Myron’s obituary page on our
website for those who would like to join us virtually.
In lieu of flowers a memorial is being established in his name.
The family would like to thank Pastor Aaron Mueller and Dr. Liang who provided Mike some
comfort and care when his family could not be with him.
