Langreck, Dorothy (12 OCT 1924 – 18 SEP 2017)
(Cemetery listing shows a lot for Dorothy Bagwell, so I listed her as that in
the Neillsville City Cemetery)
Dorothy (Bagwell) Langreck of Neillsville passed away on September 18, 2017, at
the age of 92 at the House of Dove in Marshfield, WI. She was a resident of the
Neillsville Retirement Community since 2013.
Dorothy was born to Carl and Florence Spaete on October 12, 1924 in the Town of
Washburn. She attended Neillsville schools. Dorothy married Donald Phillips in
Florida and had one daughter, Dorothy Ann, and later divorced. Dorothy moved to
Chicago and was married to Willy Bagwell for several years until his death.
Dorothy lived and worked in Chicago where she was employed at various jobs and
later retired after 30 plus years making bus fare coin boxes at General Farebox,
Inc. In 1988 she moved back to Neillsville to be closer to her family, and at
the age of 65 got a driver's license for the first time. Dorothy met Harold
Langreck several years after moving to Neillsville and they were married in
April of 2002.
Dorothy is survived by her granddaughter, Kellie Murphy (Neil Czarnecki),
grandsons Kevin (Judy) Zickert and Ryan Murphy, all of Neillsville; 3
great-grandchildren, Karsen, Krue and Bekkah; a sister, Ruth (Donald) Meihak of
Neillsville; a brother, Lawrence (Caroline) Spaete of Belvidere, IL; and several
nieces and nephews. Dorothy was predeceased by her husbands Willy Bagwell and
Harold Langreck; her daughter, Dorothy Resong; her parents; and a brother,
Robert Spaete.
