Cathreen Clark Obituary

Cathreen Clare Clark (née Weissgerber) was born on January 3, 1956, and passed peacefully but unexpectedly on September 27, 2025. She is lovingly remembered by her brother Lee, her sister-in-law Anne, her adored niece and nephew-in-law, Andrea and Michael Langeweg, and many other relatives and wonderful friends.

Cathy was preceded in death by her parents, Gloria and Leon Weissgerber, and James A. Clark, her soul mate and ever-faithful friend.

She loved her family and its history and was the keeper of the legacy begun by her great-grandfather, J. Marion Doesburg. A lifelong resident of Bayside, Cathy oversaw Alberta Acres, named for her great-grandmother, Alberta Doesburg. She did her best to maintain the home lovingly built by her grandparents, Cathreen and Arthur Vick.

Cathy loved the arts, couture, and nature's wonders. She investigated interesting topics and loved sharing her opinions and perspectives. Over the years, she shared her knowledge through her involvement as an instructor/docent at the Milwaukee Art Museum, the Cedarburg Cultural Center, Artreach Milwaukee, and as a board member of the Forest Home Cemetery & Arboretum.

When she gave, she gave from the heart; always looking at the gift, what it meant to her, and how it fit into the life of the recipient.

Cathreen was a magnet for animals, from the neighborhood dogs to the black squirrel that came to her door for treats. She communed with them all, and even the most skittish would go to her when she called.

A wonderful, spunky lady who loved with all her heart!

Aunt Cath, you are greatly missed.

A funeral service will be held on Tuesday, October 7, 2025, at Forest Home Cemetery, 2405 W Forest Home Ave, Milwaukee, WI 5321. The service will begin at 11:00 AM and will be located in the Landmark Chapel, with the burial to follow.

In lieu of flowers, a donation to Forest Home Cemetery & Arboretum or another organization supporting the arts or nature in Cathreen's name would be appreciated.
