Christine Dalee Wheelock Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Christine Dalee Wheelock, age 58, of La Crosse, died on Friday, January 15, 2021, at her home in La Crosse, WI. Christine was the youngest of four children born to Gerald R. Plapp and Ellen A. (Agnew), Lorey. She married Robert “Bob” Wheelock on August 29, 1987. She loved animals, especially dogs and horses. She was an outstanding and reliable softball catcher both in High School and after graduation and by all accounts a “Tom Boy” growing up. She loved music, especially rock and 90’s alternative but listened to it all. She was very creative and a beautiful artist using many different mediums to express herself including drawing, painting, and burning. Although she was very small in stature at a height of 4’8” she had a heart larger than most. She loved giving and helping other’s in need especially the underdog even if she was in need herself sometimes. She had a spunky nature with an infectious giggle. She loved her family, her friends, her pets and her many favorite sweets of which she always had a stash on hand. Christine is survived by her husband Robert “Bob” Wheelock of La Crosse, WI; her mother, Ellen A. Lorey of Mendota, IL; a sister, Sharon (Steve) Miller of Richland Center, WI; two brothers, Jeff Plapp of Dekalb, IL, Greg (Bonnie) Plapp of Rockford, IL; many nieces and nephews of which she loved very much; cousins and one aunt. She was preceded in death by her father Gerald Plapp, grandparents, aunts and uncles. A celebration of Christine’s life will be held at a later date this summer due to covid. The Clary Memorial Funeral Home in Richland Center assisted the family with arrangements. .
