Obituary

Peter Jon Moulds, age 76 of Minocqua, Wisconsin, (formerly of Port Washington, WI & Milwaukee, WI) passed away peacefully at Terova Senior Living Center/Allay Hospice in Mequon, WI on Thursday morning, May 12, 2022. He was able to spend his last days near his family and friends. He remained positive throughout his two-year battle with cancer. Peter was born in the Midwest to Claire (Christenson) and Lloyd Moulds on January 19, 1946. The family moved to New York when he entered high school. He attended the University of New Hampshire and graduated with degrees in chemistry and mathematics. Peter started his working career in Manhattan, New York. He later came to Milwaukee, WI (at that time, a leather capitol of the world). He became a leather chemist involved in the technology and sales of products used in the leather tanning industry. This job eventually required him to travel to many foreign countries. Peter later became involved in the plastics and coatings industry. He was employed by Tekra ATG in New Berlin, WI, as the business Unit/Technology Manager. For ten years, Peter worked at his "retirement part-time job" at the DMV in Saukville, WI and sometimes West Bend. In August, 2016, he and his wife, Cheryl Moulds, sold their house in Port Washington, WI and moved to their cabin in Minocqua. They enjoyed traveling the beauty of the northwoods, fishing, and pontooning for almost six years. Peter was known for his sense of humor and quick wit. He was a talented handyman and did remodeling projects in all of his houses. Peter was an avid fan of the Green Bay Packers and attended most of their games in his younger days. He enjoyed watching and attending the Brewers games and also Wisconsin Badgers and Marquette. He loved social get togethers. He had the ability to fit into any situation. Peter was a former member of the American Chemist Association, the Society of Vacuum Coaters, a member of the Port Washington Yacht Club, and the Ozaukee Congregational Church. His faith kept him strong. Peter was an amazing husband, devoted father, and loving grandfather. He is survived by his wife, Cheryl, and his children with his former wife, Diane (Maher) (deceased): Erica Oswald of Okauchee, WI; Kristen (Jeff) Croysdale of Glendale, WI; and David Moulds of Milwaukee, WI. He had six grandchildren: Mark, Andrew, and Megan Oswald of Chicago; and Max, Sam, and Regina Croysdale of Glendale, WI. He is also survived by numerous nieces and nephews and other relatives. Peter was dearly loved and will be missed by family and friends. We will always remember him for the positive energy everywhere he went. The family would like to send a special thanks for the caring and compassionate staff at the Marshfield Clinics-Minocqua, Terova and Allay Hospice in Wisconsin. There will be a Celebration of Life program for Peter at the Port Washington Yacht Club, 430 North Lake Street, Port Washington, WI 53074. It will be on Thursday, June 16, 2022, with the program starting promptly at 5:30 p.m. Please come and share your favorite memories and Pete stories.
