Obituary
Madison-Gary Alan Niemczyk, age 50, passed away unexpectedly on Friday, January 13, 2023. He was born on September 18, 1972, in Madison, WI to Thomas and Cheryl Niemczyk.
Gary lived on the north side of Madison and attended East High School where he made many friends and enjoyed playing football. He had a lifelong passion for football which included playing, watching, and coaching in Madison and Portage. He worked in Baraboo as a plumber for some time before moving back to Madison to work for Fox Water and Capitol Water Softener most recently.
He enjoyed spending time with family and friends at the campground, fishing, hunting, watching the Packers and Badgers, or enjoying a cold Pabst. Gary left many close friends that thought of him as a brother from another mother. He was always making people smile and laugh with a song, a goofy face, or a funny story.
Gary is survived by his father Tom Niemczyk; sisters Connie Martinson (Eric), Julie Niemczyk; nieces Brittany Brugger (Josh), Shelby Martinson, Jadyn Larson; nephews Dylan Martinson, Nathyn Martinson, Jacob Larson; great nieces Ayla and Stella Brugger; uncle Steve Niemczyk; aunt Nancy Dvorak; brother from another mother Roger Atkinson and many other cousins and very close friends.
He is preceded in death by his grandparents Gertrude, Lloyd, Barney, and Meredeth (Pinky), and his mother Cheryl.
As a testament to his amazing character, Gary has left a legacy through his gift of organ donation so that multiple people may continue their lives with the ones they loved, as he loved all of us.
A celebration of Gary’s life will be held at a later date.
