Dainis Ziedonis Bekeris
June 23, 1942 – May 4, 2025
Dainis Ziedonis Bekeris passed away on Sunday, May 4, 2025, at the age of 82. Loving husband of Martha Barrett for 30 years. Loving father of Christopher (Cheryl), Denise (Thomas Schneider), Wayne, Daniel, and Dawn (Max Veytsman). Proud grandfather of Nicholas Bekeris (Samantha), Racheal Kerby (Justin), Samuel Veytsman and Abigail Veytsman. Very happy great grandfather of Logan and Carter Bekeris and August Kerby. He was also loved by other relatives and friends.
Dainis was employed by the Milwaukee Gas Light Company, which in 1966 became Wisconsin Gas Company. He retired after more than 30 years, as a Fleet Maintenance Supervisor.
In his spare time, he enjoyed building electronics and fixing computers, all the while listening to (blasting?) his tunes. He had a very wide-ranging playlist. He proudly completed many projects around the home. Any day that he could order the pièce de resistance from Amazon was a good day.
A memorial service will be held on Friday, May 30, 2025, at Parkside 23, 2300 Pilgrim Square Drive, Brookfield, Wisconsin. The service will begin at 11:00 AM.
In lieu of flowers, memorials preferred to the Humane Animal Welfare Society. There is a DONATE button on their website – hawspets.org
