Lannie P. Tomczak, 55, of Owen, passed away on Sunday, May 22, 2022, at Marshfield Medical Center, in Marshfield, from injuries sustained in a motorcycle accident.

Lannie Paul Tomczak was born on April 22, 1967, in Stanley, the son of Michael T. and Kathleen J. (Krug) Tomczak. He was raised and received his education in the Owen/Curtiss area. After high school, Lannie was a farmhand for local farmers, before entering the U.S. Army.
