Hilbert A. Firgens Obituary

It is with deep sorrow that we announce the death of Hilbert A. Firgens of Suring, Wisconsin, who passed away on September 17, 2025, at the age of 97, leaving to mourn family and friends. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Hilbert A. Firgens to show support.

He was predeceased by: his parents, Fred Firgens and Ida Firgens (Hein); his daughter Hilly; his wife Lorraine; his grandson Kyle Peterson; and his siblings, Lydia Timm (Ted), Elmer Firgens (Betty), Evelyn Timm (Raymond), Denver Firgens (Mary), Adolph Firgens and Laura Huncosky (Hilton).

He is survived by: his daughters, Kim Hoerth (Joe) of Suring, Jody Cook (Flint) of Suring and Christy Firgens (David) of Suring; his grandchildren, Ben Firgens (Mary), Nate Firgens (Caryssa), Kira Cook and Miranda Cook; his great grandchildren, Amari, Gabe and Hogan; and his siblings-in-law, Juanita Firgens and Glen Burk. He is also survived by many nieces, nephews, other relatives, and friends.

He stayed busy until Covid, when most things closed and Hilly slowed down; his favorite saying was "if you don't use it, you lose it.".

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that memorials be made in Hilly's honor to Emmanuel Lutheran Church or Camp Luther.
