Sunset Options Funerals & Cremations
David Wensink (World), age 80, of Franklin, WI passed away on Apr. 8th, 2024 surrounded by his family. Dave was born on Dec. 30th, 1943 and was the son of John Wensink and Delia (Preder) Wensink. On July 10th, 1965, was married to Susan Mary (Sicotte) Wensink, where they remained together for 58 years.
David graduated from Sheboygan South High School in 1962 and often talked about one of his greatest memories which was playing in the basketball State Tournament in 1962. He was honorably employed at UPS for 30 years as a driver and manager and still maintains countless friends and memories.
David loved to golf, especially in the Whitnall men's senior league where he was the President for many years. Dave had an astounding 5 hole-in-ones over the years. Most of all David loved spending time with family and friends and would spend many weekends watching his grandchildren play ball. In the last weeks of his life, he would often say "I had a great life, I'm so lucky to have a loving wife along with great kids and grandkids. I'm lucky".
David was one of a kind, with a huge personality and always making people smile. He had an uncanny ability to make people laugh.
David is survived by his wife Susan Wensink, sons John (Laura) Wensink and David (Jody) Wensink and grandchildren; Susan, Sarah, Myana, Isabelle, Will, Emma, Lucas and Allie.
David was preceded in death by his oldest Son Dan Wensink, sister Ginny Weber, nephews Sid Sicotte and Mike Weber. There will be a private family service held at a later date. Condolences at sunsetoptions.com.
