MADISON - David Lee Poskie, age 69, passed away peacefully at home on Monday, 
Sept. 6, 2004. David is the son of the late Anton and Helen (Pecor) Poskie. 
After graduating from high school at Rhinelander, David enlisted in the Air 
Force. David was selected for officer training school and was commissioned. 
During his 20 year career of service, he volunteered for three tours of duty 
in Vietnam. David attained the rank of lieutenant colonel. He was severely 
emotionally affected by his experience in Vietnam. David enrolled in the 
University of Wisconsin-Madison and graduated with a degree in journalism. He 
then became a television newscaster in Rhinelander. At this low point, after 
struggles with depression, divorce and flashbacks of Vietnam, David 
courageously joined Alcoholics Anonymous in 1979. He directed his energy and 
intellect into computers and became a computer consultant. He met his true 
love, Jeanne Fromm, in the fellowship. They married in August 1987. In the 
last 17 years, they shared a love of home and gardens, and their pets. 
Together they shared David's struggle with severe health problems. David is 
survived by his wife, Jeanne; his children of his first marriage, Janet (Jeff) 
Moore, Frank Poskie, Martin Poskie and Leon Poskie; a grandchild, Sheena 
Poskie; four sisters, Judith Smith, Patricia (Mark) Thiel, Margaret (Roy) 
Windhorst and Sandra Poskie; and a brother, Peter (Jane) Poskie. He is further 
survived by many nieces, nephews, and friends. A memorial service will be held
