Gary John Eisenschenk, age 59, passed away unexpectedly on August 11, 2024, in Clayton, WI.

He was born on September 19, 1964, in Richmond, MN to Dennis and Alyce Eisenschenk. He was preceded in death by Dennis Eisenschenk, David Eisenschenk, and Renee Wallner. Survived by life partner, Diane Collins; children, Andrew, Emily (Jake), and Allison (Randy); mother, Alyce; siblings, Larry (Sharon), Tim, Tom (Debi), and Nita (Tom); and many loving friends, nieces, and nephews.

Gary was proud of his career and accomplishments with granite, tile and marble and the beauty he added to communities through his work. Gary enjoyed spending time outdoors and on the water. After growing up on the lake in Richmond, it is only fitting he spent his final years fishing, soaking up pontoon rides and beautiful water views from his lake home, otherwise known as his “happy place.” He also loved hosting and bringing friends and family together, always making sure everyone’s plates were full.

In lieu of flowers, the family would like to carry on Gary’s tradition of hospitality through donations to The Salvation Army, Twin Cities.

Services will be held on Friday, August 16, 2024 at Church of the Assumption in Saint Paul, MN. Visitation will begin at 9 am with mass to follow at 10 am. There will be a Celebration of Life on Sunday, August 18 at the Rosetown American Legion in Roseville, MN beginning at 3 pm.
