9/3/23 Winnebago County Mourns Couple Killed in FDL County Accident

3 September 2023 News


Winnebago County officials are expressing their sorrow over the death of an Oshkosh couple killed in a Fond du Lac County traffic accident Friday night. Fifty-eight-year-old Paul Delap died at the scene and his wife 56-year-old Pamela Delap died later at ThedaCare Regional Medical Center. The two were heading north on Van Dyne Road in the Town of Friendship on Paul’s motorcycle when 17-year-old Lily Miller of Fond du Lac went through a stop sign on Subway Road and they struck her vehicle. Miller was taken to St. Agnes Hospital to be evaluated. Paul was a Winnebago County Highway Foreman and Pamela was a former member of the Wisconsin Board for People with Developmental Disabilities. Winnebago County Executive Jon Doemel says, “On behalf of the Winnebago County government and citizens, we remember the Delaps for their years of service to our county.” Winnebago County Highway Commissioner Bob Doemel remembered his paving foreman by saying, “Paul ‘Frenchie’ wore his passion on his sleeve.” Fond du Lac County Sheriff’s officials say inattentive driving is believed to be a factor in the accident.
