Dr. Eugene Stanley Brusky, 91, Allouez, died peacefully Thursday, March 7, 2013, at his home surrounded by his loving family and friends. Eugene was born December 10, 1921, in Pulaski to John and Josephine Brusky. He, the youngest of thirteen children, worked with his family on their dairy farm. Eugene and several older brothers went on to attend medical school in Milwaukee. He graduated from Marquette University in 1945. September 5th of that same year, Eugene married Hazel Christina Duddeck of Waukesha. They eventually settled in Green Bay, where they raised their fourteen children.

As a general practitioner, Dr. Brusky, along with his brother, worked to establish the West Side Clinic, where they cared for several generations of area families. He collaborated with the Catholic Diocese, in helping to establish St. Mary's Hospital, to better serve west Green Bay.

Dr. Brusky served as the team physician for the Green Bay Packers for over 29 years. The team inducted Dr. Eugene into the Packer Hall of Fame in 1987.

Eugene loved the game of golf, enjoyed dining out with family and a challenging crossword puzzle. He was a devoted Catholic and belonged to St Francis Xavier Cathedral Parish. Eugene looked forward to any opportunity to share his faith with anyone he met.
