Freudigmann, John J. (10 Mar 1938 – 18 Jan 2023)

John J. Freudigmann was born on March 10, 1938; born to eternal life on Jan. 18, 2023.

John, 84, Greenwood (and Aransas Pass, Texas) died of cancer peacefully on Jan. 18, 2023, at Marshfield Medical Center, Marshfield.

John grew up in Milwaukee, where he attended West Division High School. He served a four-year sheet metal apprenticeship and was a journeyman serving various union shops/contractors through the Sheet Metal Workers Union Local 18 for over 30 years. He was a proud union member.

John enjoyed hunting, fishing, trap shooting, antique cars and spending winters in Texas. He was a member of the Neillsville Gun Club and Tri-County Antique Auto Club.

John had the extraordinary talent for talking with everyone and anyone. He was a great conversationalist. It had been said that he could talk to a fence post.

He is survived by his wife of 64 years, Eleanor; his son, John G. (Barbara); grandsons, Jason (Allison) and Curtis (Kaelee); granddaughter, Kari Jo (Maryann); and three great-grandsons, Carter, Hayes and Landon.

He was preceded in death by his daughter, Susan Lane. The family would like to thank Marshfield Medical Center, especially the fantastic 8 North nursing staff and doctors for their excellent care and compassion, along with Dr. Isaac Yeboah and his staff.

The family is planning a celebration of John’s life in the summer. In John’s honor, a donation to the Greenwood/Willard Area Food Pantry, c/o Missionary Baptist Church, 302 N. Main St., Greenwood, WI 54437, would be greatly appreciated.

Mid Wisconsin Cremation Society is assisting family at this time. Online condolences may be expressed at MWCS.WS.
