Arnold A. Gudex

Arnold August Gudex passed peacefully from this world in the early morning of January 4, 2026. With perseverance and ingenuity, he along with his family built a dairy farm along the Milwaukee River often making something out of seemingly nothing. Arnold diligently followed world politics, weaving a historical perspective into his letters to the editor and protest signs on peace, farm and social justice issues. He had a strong sense of curiosity for both local adventures and also traveled to East Germany with Alice and to Cuba. Through his long life, he accumulated and shared a wealth of stories and advice, usually giving a positive approach to any problem and issue.

Arnold was born on September 22, 1931 to Leonard and Ida (Schlueter) Gudex at home in Campbellsport, WI. He enjoyed polka dances where he met Alice (nee Gronemeyer). They married on November 13, 1954, and together they shared their Depression baby ways with six children, Robert (Debra), Donna (David) Gudex-Kamrath, Nancy (Robert Stemberger), William, Norbert and Linda (Yoshi Akimoto). They treasured their grandchildren Kristin (Charlie) Jones and Kevin, Anna and Sara (Lennart Kreckel), and Mona, Nina and Ohki.

He was preceded in death by his wife Alice just four months prior and brothers, David (Hazel), Eugene (Bertha) and Harold (Lila), brothers and sisters in law, Margaret (Marvin) Zander, Elmer (Teresa) Gronemeyer, Kenneth and Esther Gronemeyer, and nephews Loran, Matthew and Karl.

Cynthia L. Boyle

Cynthia “Cindy” Boyle, 76 of Fond du Lac (formerly of Niles, IL) passed away unexpectedly at St. Agnes Hospital on December 28, 2025 with her loving family by her side. She was born on May 20, 1949.

Cindy left behind a legacy of grace, kindness, and unwavering love. Born with a bright spirit and a gift for connecting with others, Cynthia was crowned Miss Niles in her youth—an honor that reflected not only her beauty, but the warmth and generosity that defined her throughout her life.

Above all else, Cynthia was devoted to her family. She was a loving mother, a cherished grandmother, and a steadfast sister, always ready with encouragement, laughter, or a gentle word when it was needed most. Her home was a place where everyone felt welcome, and her presence had a way of making ordinary moments feel special.

She moved through this world with a warrior’s heart and a saint’s grace. For years she battled storms that would have broken a lesser soul, yet she rose each day with quiet courage, meeting every hardship with a strength that felt almost otherworldly. Her spirit—unyielding, tender, and full of faith—now lives on in her children and grandchildren, who carry her legacy of perseverance in their own hearts.

Though her body knew illness, her spirit never bowed. She never complained, never asked “why me,” never let the weight of her suffering dim the light she offered others. Instead, she met every challenge with dignity, humility, and a gentle smile that told the world she was still fighting.

And fight she did—until the very last moment.

Her journey was long, her battles many, but her grace was endless. Her strength remains, echoing through the generations she leaves behind. Those fortunate enough to know her will remember her for the quiet strength she carried through every chapter of her life.

Her unexpected passing leaves a deep ache in the hearts of all who loved her, but her memory will continue to shine through the stories shared, the lessons she taught, and the love she gave so freely.

Cynthia’s family invites all who knew her to hold her close in their thoughts and to honor her by showing the same kindness she offered so effortlessly to others.

Those left behind to cherish her memory include her 3 children; Kimberly Zernone, Leonardo Zernone, and Melissa Zernone; grandchildren Brianna (Dean) Schutte, Alexandria Dean, Nicholas Dean, Brooklynn Zernone, Jordan Zernone, Jason Benson, Joshua Benson, Ashley Benson; great-grandchildren Taleigha, Brynley, Gianna and Avery. She is further survived by other friends and family.

She is preceded in death by her husband Arthur in 2006, parents Arthur and Annette Dvorak; her brothers; James, Donald and Gregory Dvorak.

Visitation will take place on January 7, 2026 from 3:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at Simkins Funeral Home in Morton Grove, IL.

Mass will take place on January 8, 2026 at Saint John Brebeuf Parish at 10:00 a.m.
