Scott Soczka
Scott A. Soczka, 36, of Edgar, died on Friday, Oct. 1, 2021, as the result of a truck accident.
He was born April 19, 1985, in Wausau, the son of proud parents John and Irene (Werner) Soczka. He attended Saint John’s Parochial School and graduated from Edgar High School.
Scottie was a lover of life and loved it with few boundaries. He loved his family, friends and pets fiercely. His crazy antics are legendary and will be remembered with great joy! It is true that he was a party guy and radiated fun. Scott was also a respected businessman and owner operator of Done Right Concrete of Edgar.
He loved hunting, fishing, or going to auctions and we will all miss the extraordinary sausage and meats from his smoker.
Scott loved his community and was a lifelong resident of the Edgar area. This immeasurable loss leaves a large, gaping hole in the heart of his family, his friends and the entire community.
Scott is survived by his parents, John and Irene Soczka; his brother, Andy of Edgar; his godparents, David and Suzanne Werner of Marathon, and many, many aunts, uncles, special cousins, friends and his beagle buddy, Trax.
He was preceded in death by his grandparents; uncles: Mark Showers, David Soczka and Elmer “Root” Bornheimer.
Scott exited this world wrapped in many layers of love, just like he was on the day he was born. What a roaring, laughing, bright shining trip he took thru his life. Scottie, you are loved and, in our hearts, forever.
