Augie will be remembered most for his sense of humor, kind heart and service to others. Augie loved golf since the time he was a caddy as a young boy. He celebrated his hole-in-one on the full 18, along with the mini-golf course. His love of baseball started with the Milw Braves and cheap seats at County Stadium. His number one team was the green and gold and hardly ever missed a game when the Pack was playing. Augie was an ump behind the plate, ref on the football field, devoted coach, Athletic Director at St. Mary’s, but most importantly cheering fan at all his kids’ games. He believed in giving back through his volunteer work at the Knights of Columbus, Waukesha Civic Theater, Waukesha Co Historical Society, Kiwanis, and WPRA. Augie thoroughly enjoyed his retirement, taking trips to Elder Hostels, Packer away games, and wherever his grandkids were living. He kept busy tending to his beloved back yard, reading the latest John Grisham novels and participating in the Waukesha County Church Dartball League. Augie loved his water tai chi classes at the YMCA and his time with his swim buddies in the warm water pool at New Perspectives, where he also enjoyed Happy Hours and Manhattans with new friends. Augie attended grade school at Milwaukee St. Agnes (1948) and Rufus King High School (1952). He was drafted into the Army after high school, serving 2 years in Germany. After the Korean War he attended UW-Whitewater and graduated in 1959 with a degree in Education. Later on he attended UW-Madison to get a Masters in Recreation Management.
