Jeff Lange

Jeffrey Earl Lange, known for his exquisite glass mosaics, extensive volunteer activities and devilish wit, died unexpectedly on January 27, 2025.

Jeff was born on October 19, 1952 in Beaver Dam to Earl Melvin Lange and Bernice Dorothy (Salzwedel) Lange, who predeceased him. Jeff married Brenda Ann Freda in 1975. He is survived by his wife, Brenda Lange; their daughter, Danielle Lange; his sister, Sandra Lange; and his nephew, Nathan Lange.

Jeff earned his degree in Accounting from UW-Whitewater. He and Brenda ran the family commercial printing business in Beaver Dam for 30 years. After selling the business, they moved to Door County.

During the 22 years that Jeff and Brenda have lived in Door County, he generously gave of his time to several non-profits and served on the Board of The Bay Shore Property Owners Association. He was also known for his love of the Green Bay Packers and his breathtaking glass mosaics, pieces of art which grace not only the home he and Brenda lived in but those of friends and neighbors as well as the butterfly garden at Crossroads at Big Creek. He will always be remembered by his friends for his wit and his enjoyment of wine time with friends and neighbors, the lunch group at the Red Room, second Thursday dinners, and any other time he could be with friends of him and Brenda.

Those who knew him also know he did not want to be the center of attention and was also a planner. In keeping with both, and his express wishes, there will be no service for him. He will be interred at Bayside Cemetery next to his friend and neighbor, Lou Williams, where they can pick up their tradition of watching beautiful sunsets together.
