Paul M. Trofka, 68, of Suamico, passed peacefully into the arms of his Lord on February 22, 2026, with his loving family by his side.

Paul was born May 12, 1957, in Beaumont, Texas, to Theresa and Charles Trofka. He graduated from Bay Port High School, Class of 1975. Following in his father's footsteps, he began his career as a Union Carpenter. He took great pride in his craft, contributing to the construction and renovation of numerous retail stores, hospitals, factories, and even the locker rooms at Lambeau Field. A true craftsman, Paul was patient, meticulous, and committed to doing every job right. He always measured twice and cut once.

On April 28, 1979, Paul married Michele Luetkens. Together they built a life centered on faith, family, and love, and were blessed with two children, Sara and Adam.

Paul was goodness at his core-always ready to lend a hand, offer guidance or a tool, and bring comfort in difficult times. His life was a testament to a generous spirit; he walked a path of grace, leaving a light in the hearts of all he touched. He enjoyed golfing with friends, hunting with his son, and traveling the world with his family. He especially treasured snorkeling in the Cayman Islands, cruising in Alaska, watching the eclipse in Yellowstone, and sightseeing in Greece.

Paul is lovingly survived by his wife of 46 years, Michele; his daughter, Sara (Fredi) Agalliu; his son, Adam Trofka; and his granddaughters, Mila and Nelli Agalliu, who brought him immense pride and joy. He is further survived by his sisters, Veronica Trofka, Barb (Al) Bertler, and Charlene (Ken) Simmons; his brother, Andrew Trofka; his brothers-in-law, Randy Jorgensen and Melvin (Judy) Luetkens Jr.; his sister-in-law, Maurine Bellin; as well as many nieces and nephews.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Theresa and Charles Trofka; his sister, Virginia Jorgensen; his in-laws, Melvin and Elaine Luetkens; and his brother-in-law, Dean Bellin.

Friends and family will gather at Pilgrim Lutheran Church, 1731 St Agnes Dr., from 9am to 11am on Friday, March 13; Service to follow at 11am. To send online condolences, please go to www.BlaneyFuneralHome.com.

The family extends heartfelt gratitude to the team at Mayo Clinic for their compassionate care and loving support.

Paul's legacy of faith, integrity, kindness, and quiet strength will live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved him.
