With sadness, we share that Deb Patzold passed last weekend after a short illness. There are so many words to describe such a kind, caring, resilient, and fun-loving individual. Her positive impact on students and staff during her 23 years in the district is truly undeniable.
Our thoughts are with her family and friends during this time. A Celebration of Life for Deb will be held at the Waterfront Pub & Grill, 408 State Road 50, Delavan, WI 53115, on Wednesday, July 31, from 4 - 8 p.m. All are welcome.
Memorials may be made in Deb’s name to the Elkhorn Area School District Education Foundation Endowment Fund to provide learning opportunities and support for students, teachers, and staff within the Elkhorn School District.
