Earl L. Schellin, age 64 of Mosinee, died Thursday, September 3, 2020 after undergoing 11 years of cancer treatment. He died peacefully with his wife by his side at a home appropriately referred to as "Our Slice of Heaven." He was born February 6, 1956 in Delta, Wisconsin, son of the late Alvin and Betty (Petersen) Schellin.

Earl graduated from Wittenberg-Birnamwood in 1974 and soon after joined the United States Marine Corps. After returning from military training, Earl met Katheryn Dvorak in Stevens Point, WI and the couple were later married on August 19, 1983 in Honolulu, Hawaii.

The majority of Earl's life was spent as a respected self-employed logger throughout the Central Wisconsin area. For health reasons, Earl stopped working in 2009 but always found his roles as Husband, Dad, and Grandpa to be most fulfilling. Earl enjoyed reading, antiquing, travel, and family.

Survivors include his children, Dustin (Elyse) Schellin, Magen (Brandon) Zirbel, Melanie (Joe) Kretschmer, Jordan Schellin, Kendra Schellin, and 8 grandchildren. In addition to his parents and infant brother, he was preceded in death by a brother, Dale Schellin, nephew Benjamin Schellin, and a brother-in-law, William Marble.

A celebration of life and service will be held at Lake DuBay Lion's Park 1640 County Hwy DB in Knowlton on Thursday, September 10th. Visitation will begin at 1:00pm with a service to follow at 3:00pm. Memorial flowers can be sent to 203910 Kunzman Lane, Mosinee, WI 54455. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made the The Community Center of Hope food pantry in Mosinee and Ascension at Home Hospice.
