Julie Mae (Toivonen) Wiegel

On April 26th, 2023 our beloved Julie, age 58, passed away at home under the care of Hospice, her husband Jay, and surrounded by the things she loved. She was our joy and strength throughout her 19 year battle with MS and a 6 year battle with Multiple Myeloma Cancer.

Julie was born in Wausau on July 28th, 1964 to Robert and Joan Toivonen. She was a graduate of Wausau West High School, class of 1982. Beyond high school she was employed by Marshfield Clinic Wausau Center and then Marshfield Clinic Stettin Center in the physical therapy department until her retirement.

On June 20th, 1987 she was united in marriage to her love, partner in life, and devoted care-giver Jason Wiegel. Residing in Mosinee, they welcomed their only child, Megan, on June 3rd of 1992.

To cherish and honor her memory she leaves behind her husband Jason(Jay) Wiegel of Mosinee; her daughter Megan and son-in-law Dominique Harris of Manitowoc, her grandchildren Ella and Ben Harris of Manitowoc; her mother Joan Toivonen of Wausau, her sister Ann (Peter) Henkes of Racine; her sister Lynn Toivonen of Wausau; her mother-in-law Ollie Wiegel of Wausau; sister-in-law Heidi Derbick (Michael Derbick) of Wausau; sister-in-law Jolene Olson (Gene Baca) of Colorado Springs, CO; nephews Tyler(Katelyn) and Tanner Olson of Colorado Springs, CO; as well as many aunts, uncles, cousins, friends and neighbors.

Her family wishes to thank the amazing doctors, nurses, and support staff from the many hospitals, clinics and care facilities where she received treatment during this lengthy battle. We also wish to thank her Hospice team and her extended family of caring neighbors and friends who shared help, support, and encouragement over the years.

She'll be sadly missed by all.
