Lawrence "Pat" J. Seep

Lawrence “Pat” Seep, age 88, of Cazenovia, WI, passed away peacefully on Wednesday, May 25, 2022 at Agrace Hospice in Fitchburg. He was born on March 17, 1934 to Joseph A. and Agnes (Rego) Seep in Westford Township, Richland County, Wisconsin. He was joined in marriage to Mary A. Wood on September 24, 1952 at St. Anthony’s Catholic Church in Germantown.

He worked as the Westford Township patrolman for over 62 years. During that time, he was a Richland County Deputy for 10 years and on the Cazenovia Fire Department for 25 years. Pat also owned and operated a bus service to Badger Army Ammunition Works, and he also worked for Ed Kraemer and Sons on special projects. In 1984 he purchased the dairy farm near Bunker Hill and started milking with the help of his sons, later switching to beef cattle.

Pat worked very hard, but always found time to help out a friend or family member. He loved to go hunting, and especially enjoyed spending time at the family cabin in Sawyer County.

He was preceded in death by his parents; his wife, Mary; daughter, Kathleen Zurbuchen; his siblings, Phillip, William; sister-in-law, Almira Seep; and brothers-in-law, Phil Kinsman, Francis Mueller; in-laws, Clifford Wood, Wilma Davis, and Dorothy Carlson; mother and father-in-law, William and Ruby Wood.
