Timothy E. Suroviak, 63, Rosholt, died Saturday, May 14,
2016, at House of the Dove Hospice Home.

There will be no wake or funeral per his request. A simple
ceremony will be held at the grave site Saturday, June 25.

A celebration of his life will be held from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Sunday, June 26, at the Grand Theater in the B.A. & Ester Greenheck Lounge,
401 N. Fourth St., Wausau.

Memorials can be directed to the National Prion Disease
Pathology Surveillance Center, located at Case Western Reserve University in
Cleveland, Ohio, (case.edu/med/pathology/centers/npdpsc).

Boston Funeral Home assisted with arrangements. Condolences
may be offered online at www.bostonfuneralhome.net.

Mr. Suroviak was born Aug. 18, 1952, in Hammond, Ind., a son
of the late Bernard and Agnes (Kubacki) Suroviak.

He served in the U.S. Army from 1972 to 1974 as a military police
officer and a sentry dog handler.

He was married to Monica Knechtsberger Jan. 6, 1979, in
Rockton, Ill.

The couple moved to Rosholt in 1989.

He held several jobs, and was a transportation security
officer (TSO) at the Central Wisconsin Airport in Mosinee and also worked at
Greenheck Fan.

He had heart surgery March 14, 2016, and returned home to
recuperate, but developed rapidly progressing dementia, loss of coordination,
tremors and involuntary muscle movements. After numerous tests, he was
diagnosed with Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (
CJD), a rare
degenerative neurological disorder that only affects 300 people in the U.S.
annually.

His final wish was to give his brain to research to the
National Prion Disease Pathology Surveillance Center.

Survivors include his wife of 37 years, Monica; three children,
Rachael (Bob) Allen, Marshfield, Abbie (Nate) Thomsen, Marathon, and Anne
Noack, Germany; two sisters, Christine (Mike) Talabay, Indiana, and Gloria
Keane, Indiana; one brother, Daniel (Rhonda) Suroviak, Tennessee; and two grandchildren.

He was also preceded in death by one brother, Michael
“Butchie” Suroviak.
