Mark D. Erdman
November 11, 1957 — March 18, 2018
Mark D. Erdman, age 60, passed away on Sunday, March 18. He was born and raised in Appleton and lived there most of his life, while enjoying the beautiful nature that his rural Crivitz property had to offer on the weekends.
He was born November 11, 1957, son of Shirley A. (Prudhomme) Erdman and the late Kenneth G. Erdman. His parents were both originally from the Marinette/Peshtigo area.
He was a finish carpenter and over the years finished many beautiful homes throughout Wisconsin and in other states, including Texas. Over the past 30 years, he spent most of his free time hunting, fishing or building his retirement home in Crivitz.
In the beginning of 2017, Mark found his dream job with American Dream Homes of Peshtigo and was able to move to Crivitz, the place where he always wanted to be. Shortly after his move, he was diagnosed with Stage 4 cancer. Mark fought hard but lost the battle on Sunday, March 18.
He is survived by his mother, Shirley A. Erdman, of Crivitz; children, Jessica (Troy) Kalwitz, Appleton and Jared Erdman, Appleton: grandchildren, Brooke Kalwitz and Bryce Kalwitz; nephews, Kenneth (Laura) Erdman, Jason (Terri) Erdman and numerous aunts, uncles and cousins, many of whom either live or have vacation homes in the Crivitz/Marinette/Peshtigo area.
He was preceded in death by Carla Erdman; his father, Kenneth Erdman; and his brother, Michael Erdman.
His family wishes to extend a special thanks to all of the staff at Fox Valley Hematology & Oncology for their ongoing kindness and support during the past several months, as well as Ascension/Affinity Hospice nurses.
Also, a very special thanks to Ron and Karen Prudhomme and other friends and family that helped support Mark on his final trip to Florida to make some final memories and check off items on his bucket list.
Services honoring and celebrating Mark Erdman’s life will begin with visitation from 1 to 3 p.m. on Saturday, March 24 at Rhodes Charapata Funeral Home, 801 George Street, Crivitz. There will be a memorial service at 2:30 p.m., followed by a celebration of life for family and friends at Fuzzy’s Bar, 1115 FJ Street, Crivitz.
