Gary R. Stevens, 50, of Bowler, passed away Sunday, Aug. 3, 2014, from injuries sustained on his 2014 Ultra Classic Motorcycle. He was born Nov. 18, 1963, in Janesville, the son of Ralph Stevens and Elsa Church.
Gary was an adventure enthusiast and thrill seeker who liked his toys. He was a great guy who could make friends with anyone, and he could light up a room with his big laugh and knee slaps. Nothing was more important to Gary than his family, especially his two daughters, who were everything to him.
Gary is survived by his daughters, Serena (Trever Gondeck) Stevens and Sienna Stevens, both of Shawano; a grandson on the way; his dad, Ralph (special friend Marie) Stevens, of Orlando, Florida; his mother, Elsa (Arnold) Kosbab, of Bowler; his brothers and sisters, Ginger Stevens, Scott (Sandra) Stevens, Brian (special friend, Pam) Stevens, Shawn (Lory) Stevens, Chris (Vicki) Stevens, all of Bowler, Arnold Kosbab II, of Wausau, Elisa Kosbab, of Bowler, Wanonah (Johnny) Spencer, of Antigo, Sarah (special friend, Josh) Kosbab, of Antigo, Scott (Tanya) Kosbab, of Oneida, Tsilos Kosbab, of Wausau, and Tammy Kosbab, of Rhinelander. He is further survived by numerous nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, cousins and many, many friends, all of whom will miss him dearly.
Funeral services will be held at 11 a.m. Thursday, Aug. 7, 2014, at the Lutheran Church of the Wilderness with the Rev. Melinda Shriner officiating. Visitation will be from 4-8 p.m. Wednesday, Aug. 6, 2014, at the Swedberg Funeral Home in Gresham and then at the church on Thursday from 10 a.m. until the time of the service.
