Jane E. Schmidt

Jane E. Schmidt was born to eternal life on Oct. 15 at the age of 76 at Aurora Medical Center in Grafton.

Jane is survived by her best friend and loving husband of 55 years Larry D. Schmidt. She was the best friend and dear mother of son Scott C. Schmidt and daughter Dana L. Schmidt and she is survived by her grandson Chase L. Schmidt.

She was the daughter of Cyril and Renata Luedtke.

She was preceded in death by her sister Carol A. Willhard.

Jane was born July 18, 1947, in Ozaukee County, Wis., and lived most of her life in the Town of Saukville.

She graduated from Port Washington High School in 1965.

Jane was united in marriage to the love of her life and high-school sweetheart Larry in 1968. Their beautiful marriage was blessed with a son and daughter and then later on a grandson. Jane and Larry’s marriage lasted a wonderful 55 years together.

Jane had an easy-going and nurturing way in life to show her love and support to her family. Jane always had time to listen and help the family through rough times. Her big heart and kindness made sure no matter what everyone always had a smile on their face. Jane will be greatly missed by all those she knew and loved.

Jane’s last job was at an electronics company where she soldered circuit boards and put together medical equipment. She was able to retire from the job she loved to help her daughter raise her newly born grandson.

When Jane wasn’t busy enjoying her family, she loved needlepoint, playing cards and reading. She also loved cooking and baking, which she learned from her mother. 

Private family services will be held at Mueller Funeral Home & Crematory in Grafton, Wis.

Jane will be laid to rest at Union Cemetery in Saukville, Wis.
