Kevin Wayne Friedli, age 53, born on November 15, 1970 - August 14, 2024 in Madison WI. 

Kevin W. Friedli passed away at home on August 14, 2024, after a long battle with an aggressive form of prostate cancer, which ultimately led to his unexpected passing. 

Kevin was born on November 15, 1970 to Richard and Karen (Davis) Friedli in Middleton, WI. Kevin grew up and attended Middleton High School. Kevin became a waste and recycling truck driver, and worked for several trucking companies in the area until he was forced to retire, from Pellitteri Waste Systems, due to the progression of his prostate cancer. Kevin’s hobbies throughout his life included bowling, hunting, playing euchre, corn-hole, and video games, watching the Milwaukee Brewers and Green Bay Packers, and most importantly, spending time with family and friends! 

Kevin is survived by his wife; Barbara (Miller), his two sons; Logan (Tristen Harris) and Cade, and his brother; Ryan Friedli. 

He was preceded in death by his parents; Richard and Karen Friedli.
