LaMar Buchholz, age 77, of Sussex, Wisconsin, passed away on April 7, 2026.
LaMar dedicated his career as a USDA Food Inspector, taking pride in his work and the people he served alongside. Outside of his profession, he was a man of boundless energy and involvement. From contributing to the school board to supporting the marching band, LaMar was always engaged in his community and eager to lend a hand wherever he could.
He had a deep love for live rock music and never missed an opportunity to attend a concert or strike up a conversation with someone new. A true people person, LaMar found joy in connection and camaraderie. He was also a devoted do-it-yourselfer, always working on projects and finding satisfaction in building and fixing things with his own hands.
Above all, LaMar cherished his family. He loved attending the many activities of his children and grandchildren, showing unwavering support and pride in all they did. Traveling with his family brought him great happiness and created lasting memories for those he loved most.
LaMar is survived by his four children: Kimberly Buchholz, Heidi Sagna, Amanda (Chris) Radomski, and Josh (Jaime) Buchholz; and his seven grandchildren: Noah (20), Mari (19), Zara (17), Maura (17), Hannah (12), Avarie (10), and Lucy (8). He was preceded in death by his beloved wife, Bev.
