   NORWALK - Clinton L. Summerfield, 86, of Norwalk, died on Thursday, July 14, 2022 at Tomah Health, Tomah. He was born on November 2, 1935 in Ridgeville, Wisconsin to Jon and Arlene (Bell) Summerfield. He grew up in Ridgeville.

   He worked at Halgren’s Farm and Sparta Manufacturing until 1997, when he retired, at the age of 62. He married Carol Kroeger at St John’s Church on Summit Ridge on October 23, 1976.

   Clinton was an avid Brewers, Packers, and Badger’s fan. He enjoyed fishing, playing cards, and attending tractor pulls. He loved banana split blizzards from Dairy Queen. He enjoyed watching WWF wrestling, back in the day when it was good in the 80s and 90s, and enjoyed scratch off lottery tickets, the Crossword puzzle ones. Though Clinton’s favorite color was yellow, and he hated the color blue, his mother, wife, and daughters bought him blue clothing because it looked good on him, because of his blue eyes.

   Clinton is survived by his wife, Carol (Kroeger) Summerfield; children, Janet (Luis) Hernandez, Suzanna Alcaraz, Jon (Tessa Struecker) Summerfield, Clinton Jr. (Bridget) Summerfield, and Amanda Valdovinos; grandchildren, Mikaela (Tim) Pumphrey, Bronson and Bianca Hernandez, Troy and Hunter Alcaraz, Alex and Casey Summerfield, Riley Stuber, Colin and Wyatt Summerfield, and Lyla and Kaitlynn Valdovinos; great-grandchild Kamara Pumphrey; and sisters-in-law Carol and Barb Summerfield.

   He was preceded in death by his parents, Jon and Arlene (Bell) Summerfield; brothers, Calvin and William Summerfield; and sister, Audrey (Calvin) Capper.

   The family would like to thank the staff involved in his care; Dr. Robertson, Sharon from the Specialty Clinic, the ladies at the front desk of the hospital, Tomah Memorial Hospital, Dr. Schanhofer, at the Skemp Clinic, and Abby Vans.

   A Celebration of Life will be held at 1:00 p.m. on Sunday, August 21, 2022 at Brenda’s Bar and Grill in Melvina.
