Bryan Mark Beyersdorf obituary

Bryan Mark Beyersdorf

March 2, 1963 – June 28, 2024

Bryan “Buford” Mark Beyersdorf, 61, of Iola, Wisconsin, died Friday, June 28, 2024.

He was born on March 2, 1963, in Waupaca, Wisconsin, to Martin “Booty” and Lola (Wohlrabe) Beyersdorf. Bryan married Sarah Kaminski on June 4, 2011, at St. Adalbert’s Catholic Church in Rosholt, Wisconsin. 

Bryan loved spending time with his family. He was the best dad ever to his youngest girls Anna and Emma. He enjoyed joking around with them and making them all laugh together. He liked to make everyone laugh and he could meet someone new and have them laughing within minutes because he had a way of using his own words for everything. He enjoyed gun hunting with his boys. It was special to him because the boys stayed over the whole season so it was a time of laughing and he would often say to all of us “when the Winchester barks, there’s meat on the table”.  And that was true. He was a good man with a big and kind heart.

Bryan retired from the Waupaca Foundry in 2021 after 35 years of employment. He was a hard worker and always provided for his family 

He is survived by his wife Sarah; children Brandon, Chadwick, Anna, Emma, Katy, Samantha, Cole, Seth, and Derrek; many grandchildren; and siblings Lynette Cloward, Lonna (Robert) Kressler, Hope (Loran Schultz) Peotter, and Heidi Beyersdorf. He was preceded in death by his father Martin Beyersdorf, his mother Lola Beyersdorf, and his grandson Martin Hardwick Beyersdorf. 

The Funeral Mass for Bryan will be held on Saturday, July 6, 11 a.m. at St. Mary’s Catholic Church in Marion, Wisconsin, with Father Matt Settle officiating. Visitation will be held at the Voie Funeral Home in Iola on Friday from 3:30-6:30 p.m., a Rosary Service at 6 p.m., and at the church on Saturday from 10 a.m. till the time of Mass. The interment will be at Big Falls Cemetery. Lunch will follow at Little Falls Tavern.
