Joseph “Jay” Gumina

Gumina, Joseph “Jay”

1967-2013. Passed away peacefully at home on August 10th, surrounded by family and friends.Beloved husband of Genia. Father of Savannah and Teagan. Son of Rosario and Charmaine, and brother of Andy (wife Tony). He will be lovingly remembered by his in-law family, nieces, nephews and especially by his special group of long-standing friends.

Jay loved being with his family and friends, hunting, ATV’ing, Butternut and fishing. He was an avid hunter for most of his life and enjoyed being in the woods hunting for that elusive Big Buck.
He graduated from Whitewater with a degree in Computer Science and spent most of his career at Case New Holland in Racine, working in the Information Technology department. He traveled to Europe and Pennsylvania for work but always counted the days until he returned to Wisconsin to be with his family and friends.

Jay’s cancer battle was only a hindrance to him in that he was unable to forget his daily struggles with the disease and move through his life as if it didn’t exist. He resisted with all the strength he had and only at the end did it prove stronger than he. Jay will be missed by all who knew him and forgotten by none.

Visitation will be Tuesday, August 13th at the FUNERAL HOME from 4-7 pm with a service to follow. Interment Highland Memorial Park.
