Obituary for Donald David Payne
Donald D. “Bud” Payne, age 79, of Oshkosh, died Sunday, March 11, 2018, at Oakwood Manor. Born on November 18, 1938, in Coloma, Wisconsin, the son of Marvin and Linda (Brietzke) Payne, Don married Alice Olkiewicz on February 27, 1960. Alice preceded Don in death on November 13, 2013.
A machinist of 33 years, Don was employed by Rockwell International. He loved hunting, fishing, wood carving, and his brandy old fashions. Don enjoyed his involvement with Sturgeon for Tomorrow and Ducks Unlimited. He was especially passionate about being a volunteer “first to arrive and last to leave” with the Town of Oshkosh Fire Department for over 40 years.
Survivors include three daughters, Lori Brayton, Michelle (Chris) Rosenberg, and Tracy (Mark) Gerlach; grandchildren, Jared and Alyssa Brayton; Jacob Rosenberg; Olivia, Carson, and Parker Gerlach; and nieces and nephews. Preceding Don in death are his parents and sister, Gwen Johnson.
A Memorial Gathering will be held on Saturday, March 24, 2018, at Fox Cities Cremation Chapel, 3026 Jackson Street. Family and friends may call between 1:00 and 4:00 p.m. A memorial has been established in Don’s memory to the Town of Oshkosh Fire Department.
A heartfelt thank you to Dr. Jon Carlson and his nurse Michelle, Dr. Nguyen Phan, all Don’s cardiologists, Heartland Hospice, Arborview Manor, and Oakwood Manor for all the gentle care and concern given to Don during his stay.
Dad, you will truly be missed.
