IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Michael James
Prell
October 27, 1981 – September 28, 2014
Michael James Prell died unexpectedly, due to an automobile accident, on Sunday, September 28, 2014. He was born on October 27, 1981, in Eau Claire, Wisconsin to his proud parents, Larry and Kathy (Rust) Prell. Michael grew up in Eau Claire for his first nine years of life. In 1990, his family moved to Neenah, Wisconsin where Michael attended Coolidge Elementary School, Horace Mann Middle School, and Neenah High School, where he graduated in 2000. Michael also attended UW-Eau Claire, where he played football. Michael was such a character and lived an amazing 32 (almost 33) years. He will be missed every day for his unending kindness, hilarious antics, and practical jokes. Michael had a big heart, a big laugh, and a big sense of humor. He had a personality that lit up a room. Michael was truly everyone's best friend. He was instantly liked by everyone he met. In this time of sorrow, it is comforting to know that he is in heaven telling jokes with his Grandpa Rust. Michael did more in 32 years than most people will do in a lifetime. He had recently found success and loved his job selling cars at Bergstrom Automotive in Appleton. Prior to his career in car sales, it goes without saying that Michael was a bit of a renaissance man. He was an inventor, website designer, radio DJ, teacher, t-shirt printer and salesman, stand-up comedian, and TV "personality." Recently he added limo driver to his repertoire. Michael had a lot of fun driving his limo, El Toro, especially on Packer game day. Michael also took pride in his new house that he had recently renovated. Michael is going to be missed by so many. In addition to countless friends, Michael is survived by his parents, Larry and Kathy Prell, of Neenah; sister, Lisa and her husband, Ryan Olson, of Winneconne, and their children, Hannah, Halen, and Emma; sister, Lindsey and her husband, Jonathan Lewis, of Estes Park, Colorado, and their soon-to-be baby, Lewis; and brother, Daniel, and his girlfriend, Sara Nollenberg, of Neenah; grandparents, Russell and Veronica Prell, of Eau Claire; and numerous aunts, uncles, and cousins. Michael was a great son, brother, uncle, grandson, nephew, cousin, and dear friend. He was preceded in death by his Grandma and Grandpa Rust; Aunts Jeanette and Nancy, and Uncle Jim. A visitation for family and friends will be on Thursday, October 2, 2014, from 5:00 to 8:00 p.m. at St. Margaret Mary Parish, 620 Division St. Neenah, and will continue on Friday, October 3 from 10:00 a.m. until noon at the church. A Funeral Mass will be held on Friday at noon at the church with Fr. Michael Ingold officiating. If you wish please submit online condolences to muellerfuneralhomeinc.com.

You made every family gathering so much fun and full of laughter. We love you. Love, Mom, Dad, Lisa, Lindsey, and Daniel.
