Harold "Butch" R. Krich, 82, of Twin Lakes, WI., passed away on October 25th, 2025 at Ridgestone Terrace, in Elkhorn WI. He was born in Harvard, IL., on March 24th, 1943, to George and Violet (Thomforda) Krich. He would then go on to meet the love of his life Carol (Beager) Krich at a roller rink, they later married on May 25th, 1963.

Butch loved many things, but nothing more than his late wife Carol, and his family. He absolutely loved being a dad, a grandpa, and great grandpa. There was also never any doubt that he was a hard, working man, and had a great passion for his 64' Ford, as well as his John Deer tractors. Butch will always be fondly remembered for his constant joking, especially for his saying, "You mess with the bull, you get the horns!"

Butch is survived by his four children; Sheila (Bryan) Stevens, Ron (Heidi) Krich, Brad Krich, and Sherrie Shannon. His 10 grandchildren; Tonya, Tara, Brandon, Joshua, Justin, Karley, Alexandria, Faith, Cheyenne, and Cody. As well by his 15 great grandchildren, and two siblings; Phyllis Margraf and Mariann Sporleder.

Butch is preceded in death by his parents, his wife Carol, his siblings; Marvin Krich, Elaine Passfield, Donald Krich, Melvin Krich, Elroy Krich, and his grandson Bryson Krich.

We would also like to send a heartfelt thank you to Amy from St Croix Hospice for being by his side and special care you took with him during his final days.

A celebration of life will be held for Butch and Carol at a later date. We at Haase-Lockwood & Associates are proud to have served the Krich family.
