Daniel A. Geske

Daniel “Boone” Geske, age 61, passed away after his hard fought 2 year battle with lung cancer at his home on Thursday, June 30th, 2022 with his loved ones by his side. He was born to the late Evan and Eleanor (Loose) Geske on June 9, 1961, in Appleton, WI. After graduating from high school, Boone proudly served his country as a United States Marine. Boone then spent his 38 year career working for Oshkosh Truck.
Boone spent his free time restoring his 51’ Ford pickup truck with one of his best buddies Charlie, riding his Harley Davidson, and he was always down for a good game of cribbage and drinking a few 16oz Bud Light beers. He will forever be remembered for blasting the music and having a good old dance session (which his granddaughter’s loved). He was the greatest Papa/Grandpa to his 3 granddaughters and loved them very much. Boone kept his sense of humor and his ability to keep everyone on their toes until the very last few hours of his life.
Boone is survived by his two children, Travis Geske, and Kimberly (Dusty) Bidwell; grandchildren, Skylar, Marlice, and Brynlee; girlfriend Kelly Anderson, brothers, Tim (Sharie), Jim, Tommy, and Scott (Carolyn) Geske; sisters, Deborah Heckert, Sue, Jane Geske, and Jody Kelder.
In addition to his parents, Boone was preceded in death by his siblings, John, Paul and Cindy Geske; and brother-in-law, Jerry Heckert.
Per Boone’s wishes, there will be no funeral. The family will hold a celebration of life at a later date, as Boone was always down for a good party.
