Janice M. Natzke, age 84, of Tigerton passed away on Wednesday, October 16, 2019 at ThedaCare Regional Medical Center, Neenah, surrounded by her family.
The former Janice Marie Hoffman was born on July 9, 1935 in Shawano to Anton and Lorraine (Pevonka) Hoffman. She was united in marriage to Clarence H. Natzke on August 27, 1955 at St. Francis Solanus Catholic Church in Gresham.
Janice graduated salutatorian from Gresham High School in 1953. She attended business school in Green Bay and had her first job in the office at Consolidated Badger Cooperative in Shawano. After marriage, the couple spent a year in New Mexico while Clarence was serving in the U.S. Army. Together they created Natzke’s Milk Service in Tigerton where she worked as secretary until her retirement in 2000. The business is still run by family members to this day.
Janice was an active member of St. Anthony’s in Tigerton; serving with the Ladies Society PCCW and the Quilting Guild. She was well known for her kind and gentle demeanor and for serving others especially with her quilting. She enjoyed reading, sewing, and traveling. Janice and Clarence were proud to have traveled to all 50 states and several other countries making memories together.
