On Friday, August 2, 2024 Milton C. Krug, 83, of rural Fond du Lac, “Dotyville”, was called peacefully to eternal rest at the Hospice Home of Hope. He was born June 13, 1941, to Clarence and Viola (Miller) Krug. He attended Goodrich High School, and following graduation enlisted and served in the U.S. Navy as an Aviation Structural Mechanic. Milt went on three deployments with his squadron In the Western Pacific.
Following his service, Milt returned to his hometown and married the love of his life, Susan Hahn, on May 7, 1966, at St. Michael’s Catholic Church in Dotyville.
Working as a carpenter, Milt built their home in Dotyville and they raised their family there. He later started his own construction company and built many homes in the area.
