Scott Polenc, age 70, of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, passed away at his home on April 20th, 2026.
Scott lived life enjoying the things he loved most. He had a deep appreciation for classic rock music, cheering on the Green Bay Packers, and watching NASCAR. While sports and music brought him joy, nothing meant more to Scott than being with his family.
Those who knew Scott will remember his familiar presence, his love for simple pleasures, and his quiet but steady way of showing he cared.
Scott is survived by his sister, Gail Stromberg (the late Rick); his stepmother, Darlene Polenc (the late Robert); his nieces, Nikki (Dave) Christman and Shannon (Sean) Pippin; great-nieces Marlee Herrick and Sophia Pippin; and great-nephew Cash Pippin. He is further survived by many extended family members and friends who were fortunate to know and love him.
Scott was preceded in death by his mother, Rose, his father, Robert, and his brother-in-law Richard Stromberg.
Though his passing was unexpected, Scott leaves behind a lifetime of memories that will live on in every story told.
A celebration of Scott’s life will be held on Saturday, May 16th, 2026, at Integrity Celebrations Center, 2789 Browns Lake Dr., Burlington, WI 53105. A memorial service will begin promptly at 2pm followed by an open house celebration from 2:30pm until 4:30pm.
