- Rex Kadlec, age 67 of Appleton, passed away April 5, 2019 with his family near his side. Rex was born in Michigan on July 14, 1951, son of the late Fred and Beatrice (Davis) Kadlec. On September 12, 1970, he married Joan Matuszewski.
The day you left was the saddest day of our life. It may be selfish but we still wish you were here, or that you had another year. We know you loved us and we still love you too, so we are trying to stay strong just for you. Even though you were holding on for so long, but theres not a day we dont think of you and how you were so strong.
Rex was a family man that was the happiest when he had his family around. He was always willing to lend a helping hand or teach you something new. He had big shoulders to cry on and big arms to hug you with. He was always there to listen and offer worldly advice, he was the easiest man to talk to and never pass judgment.
Rex is survived by his wife: Joan Kadlec of Appleton; four children: Amie (David) Mischler of Appleton, Brett Boomer (Jenna) Kadlec of Appleton, Ryan Kadlec of Appleton, and Adam (Rachel Slivon) of Gainesville, Florida. There are eight grandchildren: Karley Krawze, Alyssa Krawze, Brock Mischler, Berkley Mischler, Bryce Mischler, Cole Kadlec, Carson Kadlec, and Camden Kadlec. Rex also leaves behind two sisters: Carole (Ron) LarMay, and Donna (Arthur) Buth; a brother: John (Jan) Kadlec; as well as Joans family: Jack Matuszewski, Jim (Sarah) Matuszewski, Victor (Karen) Matuszewski, Shirley (Dennis) Penasa, Betty (Frank) Miles, Mary (Bob) Fatla, Jane (Mike) Egan, and Chuck (Wendy) Matuszewski. And many nieces and nephews.
He was preceded in death by his parents, brothers: Anthony (Ike) Kadlec and Harvey Kadlec, a sister-in-law Gloria Matuszewski, Joan's parents Victor and Dorothy Matuszewski.
