Parker J. Duesterhaus, 25 of Appleton, WI passed away Sunday, August 20, 2023.  Parker was born on October 21, 1997, beloved son of Susan and Jonathan Duesterhaus, caring brother to Jared and Kenady Duesterhaus.

Parker enjoyed drawing, playing games, watching obscure movies, going for walks, and drinking Miller High Life. Many people were lucky to call Parker their friend. He was equally ready to help you party and to help pack, ready to start the shenanigans and to pick up after them.

Parker worked as a freelance artist in Minneapolis, MN. He found beauty in the big, the small, and the everyday. May we all learn from his perspective.

A funeral service will be held at 3:00 p.m. on Sunday, August 27, 2023, at Brettschneider-Trettin-Nickel Funeral Chapel, 606 N Oneida St, Appleton.  Friends may visit from 1:00 p.m. until the time of service.
