Thomas W. Bloomer, of Kronenwetter, passed away peacefully with his family by his side on Friday July 8, 2022, at the age of 83.
Tom was born on April 13, 1939, to John & Helen Bloomer in Indianapolis Indiana.
After high school he enlisted into the Navy, stationed in California from 1956 to his honorable discharge in 1960. Tom moved to Schofield Wisconsin where he met the love of his life, Joann Fierek. They married on October 1, 1960 and celebrated 61 years together.
After the Military, Tom began his career as an electrician and truck driver. In 1966 he started his own business as owner & operator of Bloomer Trucking until his retirement in 1999.
Community service was important to Tom. For many years he was a member of the Lions Club and Elks Club. It wasn't uncommon that he regularly donated pet food for the animals at the humane society. He gave back in many ways often sharing his time and talents. He was very humble, just a "good guy".
Tom and Joann liked traveling to casinos and being "Winter Texans". He enjoyed life's simplest pleasures. Putzing in his shop, painting rocks, and going on a nice drive with his sweetie. He was always on the lookout for turtles, stopping to safely help them across the road. Together they loved feeding and watching the birds, working on puzzles and playing a good game of King's Corners or Yahtzee.
Tom frequently wrote little love notes to Joann, humming a tune or singing a song he made up especially for her. Every day he would tell Joann she was beautiful. She was his "Bug", she was his world, she was his everything.
Our lives are different now, a piece of our puzzle is missing, but the picture is still beautiful all the same.
Tom is survived by his loving wife, Joann Bloomer, children, Rose (Mike) Zvoda, Thomas (Jayne) Bloomer, seven grandchildren, Jason (Danielle) Zvoda, Kyle Zvoda, Sheri (Robert) Hartlich & Teri (Dennis) Opitz, Dereck Simonsmeier, Tylor (Lacey) Savaske-Simonsmeier & Katie (Colton) Zellner.
He is further survived by seven great grandchildren Kyson & Ryker Zvoda, Paige Simonsmeier, Emma & Jaxson Savaske-Simonsmeier, Zaxiver Basak, & Kellin Hall, brother, Mark (Bobbie) Bloomer and many nieces, nephews and friends.
Tom was welcomed into the gates of Heaven by his infant daughter Mary Rose, his parents, his brothers Mike & Johnny, and his sister Mary Helen Criel.
A Celebration of Life & Memorial Service will be held at 11 a.m. Monday July 18, 2022 at Our Savior's First National Polish Church in Mosinee with a visitation from 10 a.m. until the time of service. A full Military honors ceremony will follow.
