- Trams, Jonathan M 2004 Appleton Post Crescent dated 6/26/2004; Trams, Jonathan M. Jonathan M. Trams, of Appleton. If you are reading this that means I am dead. I died on Wednesday, June 23, 2004, after being diagnosed with leukemia on November 20, 2003; and God has decided to take me home now rather than make me suffer. This was not an unexpected death even though I am only 28. I was born on January 15, 1976 at Theda Clark. I graduated from Neenah High School in June of 1994, and in the summer of 1999, I graduated from Fox Valley Tech. On October 6, 2001, I married my wife Julie at Our Saviors Lutheran in Oshkosh, where we were members. We shared the birth of our daughter Elizabeth on May 29, 2004. For the past three years I have been employed with SBC. I would like to say thank you to Dr. Robert Geller and everyone at his office, the nurses on 4 South at St. Elizabeths and Affinity Hospice for all your help. Go Niners! Jon is survived by his wife, Julie; daughter, Elizabeth Patricia; parents, Leonard (Susan) Trams and Barbara (Towns) Porter; two sisters: Angela (Brett) Cartwright and Denise Porter; one brother, Ryan Porter; three step-sisters: Lori (Don) MacVittie, Lynn (Tim) Bostedt, and Cheri (Joel) Conover; one step-brother, Jeremy Baumgartner; two brothers-in-law: Josh and Chris Carrick; nieces and nephews: Matthew Cartwright, Korey, Galina, and Victoria MacVittie, and Jacob and Brooklyn Bostedt; maternal grandparents, John and Patricia Towns; paternal grandparents, Curt and Patricia Trams; mother-in-law, Joyce (Ivan Craig, Jr.) Carrick; two Godchildren: Olivia Behm and Amanda Bergner; special friends: Jeremy Bidwell and Roger Mullin. Jon is further survived by many aunts, uncles, other family members and friends. He was preceded in death by his father-in-law, Steven Carrick. Funeral services will be held at 11 a.m. Monday, June 28, 2004, at Our Saviors Lutheran Church, Oshkosh, with Rev. Arnold Stillwell officiating. Visitation will be held on Sunday evening from 4:30 until 8:30 p.m. at Neenahs Westgor Funeral Home and again on Monday morning from 9:30 a.m. until the time of the service at the church. Interment will take place in Lake View Memorial Park, Oshkosh. In lieu of flowers, a memorial will be established in Jons name. To Monty, A Final Toast Westgor Funeral Home 205 W. Doty Avenue
