Patricia “Patty” L. Bollig (Bork) passed away in her home on Saturday, August 27th, 2016 after an 11 month battle with cancer. She was 59.

She married William “Bill” Bollig in 1977, and together established their home in Sun Prairie, WI. Patty was a dedicated clerical worker for the State of Wisconsin for 34 years. She retired in 2013.

Patty was a loving and caring mother of two children, Casey and Carly. She had a passion for creativity and enjoyed various crafting projects, quilting, and baking. Patty always found a way to put others before herself, and inspired many during her battle with cancer.

Dear Casey & Carly-
Just wanted to let you know that I am thinking of you both at this difficult time. You & your parents are in my prayers.

Mrs. St. Louis

So sorry for your loss. Pat road on our state van for many years and enjoyed seeing you at Walmart where I also worked.

Always a friend to me, listened when I needed someone. Lost touch in recent years but often remember a kind friend.

She was very beautiful. So sorry for your loss may she rest in peace.

Dear Bill and Family,

My deepest sympathy to you and your family. How hard this must be for all of you. Please know I am thinking of you.

Sincerely,

Jan Henriksonc

Patty was an absolute joy to work with. She set a great example for the rest of us when it came to excellence and dedication in the workplace, a real treasure of a person. June Doyle, former coworker.

It was an a honor to work with Patty at the former DHFS, currently DHS. I am sorry she could not attend the dinner outing we arranged with her sister, back in April 2016, when I learned she was sick. Linda (and Chuck), who we also worked with for many years, were our esteemed guests that night and we remembered Patty even though she could not attend that evening. We did a few golf outings over the years. I know she always looked forward to coming to her job at 1 W. Wilson Street. She will be missed by many more than her immediate families. She was way too young! and one of the best. Her brother Dennis found my missing 1969 High School class ring in 1995 on the State Capital grounds and over some years remembered it and found the owner of it (ME!) I lost it in 19710 when I registered for the draft lottery at the City County Bldg. and then stopped to view the capitol bldg. while I was conveniently on the square. I still treasure it. My thoughts and prayers are with you all, and whether or not I make the service, know that we also mourn her passing.

Bill and kids.......So sorry to hear about your great loss. You all will be in our thoughts and prayers.

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
