of Fairfield Bay, AR
December 29, 1949 - February 6, 2025
Wally David Mueller, 75, passed away on February 6, 2025, after a life filled with service, love and adventure. Born in Sheboygan to Walter and Virginia (née Kernen) Mueller, Wally dedicated his life to family, faith and community.
A graduate of South High School in Sheboygan, Wally later earned a Bachelor of Science in management, shaping both his military and civilian careers while mentoring and uplifting those around him.
He proudly served in the United States Air Force as a medical laboratory superintendent, retiring as a senior master sergeant on August 1, 1991 after more than two decades of honorable service. He continued his commitment to others through the American Red Cross, serving 20 years as a quality assurance director.
Wally was an avid outdoorsman who loved hunting and fishing, always emphasizing safety and fair game practices. His devoted hunting dog, Cole, was often by his side in the woods or at the duck farm. A passionate sports fan, he never missed cheering on his beloved Green Bay Packers.
Wally was a man of deep faith and service. As a devoted member of Presbyterian Kirk of the Hills, he served as a session elder and a member of the Men's Club. His kindness and generosity touched many lives.
Above all, Wally loved unconditionally. He shared 53 wonderful years of marriage with his devoted wife, Nancy (née Doelder). He leaves behind his children, Michael (Cheryl) and Sarah (Theresa); seven cherished grandchildren and siblings, David, Linda and Chris.
Family and friends are invited to celebrate his life on February 12, 2025, 11 a.m., at Presbyterian Kirk of the Hills Church (Activities Center), 250 Dave Creek Parkway, Fairfield Bay, Arkansas. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Kirk Men's Club.

Nancy,
My condolences to you and your family for this great loss. Wally was the best superintendent/supervisor I ever had. Always smiling, with a ready word of encouragement or a helping hand. I missed his leadership style when he retired from the lab. He was one of a kind.
