Dennis D. Beuthin

The Lord says it’s time to stop this journey to begin a new journey. It started on Sunday, March 9, 2025.

My original journey began on May 27, 1943, in the family of Louie and Viola (Miller) Beuthin, as one of their 10 children.

I graduated from Green Lake High School and went on to serve my country in the U.S. Army from 1964 to 1966, in Germany. I continued my education at Moraine Park Technical College. I worked as a master plumber for 42 years at Green Lake PLB and Eckstein PLB, and 15 years at Ripon Ace Hardware. I enjoyed gardening, wood working, bird watching in my yard, and just being outside, but my greatest joy was spending time with my children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.

Now I start my new journey. I leave behind my wife, pal, and best friend, Jill; my daughter, Jennie (Don) Benson; my son, Mitch (Angie) Beuthin; grandchildren, Ashley (Cal) Abts, Aly Zahnow, Max Beuthin, Lucy Beuthin, Henry Beuthin, Hannah Benson, Camryn (Ashtin) Busching-Flanigan, and Parker Benson; great-grandchildren; Barrett, Lakken, Aubree, and Kynslee Abts, and Beau Busching-Flanigan; brother, Larry Beuthin; sister, Betty (Dave) Kuen; sisters-in-law, Margaret “Peggy” Beuthin, Peggy Beuthin, and Kanda (Richard) Zabrowski; many nieces, nephews, and friends.

Now I join my parents, Louie and Viola; parents-in-law, Leonard and Marie Kloostra; brothers, Louis (Ruth), Ervin (Joan), Darwin (Janet), Gib (Doris), Vern (Carol), Dave, and Gerald “Corky” Beuthin; sisters-in-law, Beth Beuthin and Judy Faber; two nieces, Barbara Beuthin and Sherry Kinas; and a nephew, Kenneth Beuthin.

A visitation for Dennis will be held from 9:00 am until 11:00 am on Thursday, March 13, 2025, at Ripon Community Church, 1 Westgate Drive, Ripon, WI 54971.

A funeral service for Dennis will be held at 11:00 am on Thursday, March 13, 2025, at Ripon Community Church, with Pastor Sam Prellwitz officiating. A final salute and full military honors will follow the service at the church. Interment will take place at Woodlawn Cemetery in Ripon.

In lieu of flowers, Dennis has asked that memorial donations be made to Disabled American Veterans, www.dav.org.

Dennis’ family would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to Generations Hospice and Whispering Pines for their wonderful care and support.
