Cornelius John Will

Cornelius John Will, age 90, passed away peacefully in Sheboygan on July 3, 2025. He was born to the late John C. and Armella (Kirsch) Will.

Cornelius was a farmer all of his life. As a young man, he worked for several area farmers, including Knoener, Kirsch, Wipperman and Kimme. He began working for Millersville Box in Howards Grove in 1961, and retired from there in 2001 after 40 years. During his time at Millersville Box, he continued to help run his own family farm. When his parents passed away in 1991, he became the sole owner of the farm, working there until his health caused him to move into the Lakehouse Sheboygan. Cornelius was also a member of the St. Clement Catholic Church in Sheboygan, attending services regularly until he moved into Lakehouse.

Cornelius is survived by his family and friends that loved him and will miss him dearly.

He is preceded in death by his parents.

The family would like to thank the wonderful staff at Lakehouse Sheboygan and Sharon S. Richardson Community Hospice for the exceptional care and concern they showed to Cornelius and his family.

A funeral service will be held at Zimmer Westview Funeral Home, W2132 Garton Rd., Sheboygan, on Thursday, July 10, 2025 at 12:00 p.m., with Father Dennis Beltre officiating. Relatives and friends may visit with the family from 11:00 a.m. until the time of service at the funeral home.
