Lammers, LaMont G.

LaMont G. Lammers, 85, of Cedar Grove entered his heavenly home on December 3, 2015 while at the Cedar Grove Gardens.

LaMont was born on June 5, 1930, the son of the late H. John and Florence (TenDollen) Lammers. He attended Cedar Grove area schools and graduated from Cedar Grove High school in 1948. LaMont served in the US Army with the 712th Engineering Co and played baseball and basketball for the 5th Army Division from 1948-50. As a pitcher he later played in the minor league for several years.

On October 30, 1953 he married Mariann Wisse, the daughter of the late George and Kathryn (Roelse) Wisse in Cedar Grove. In October, LaMont and Mariann celebrate their 62nd wedding anniversary. They made their home at 913 South Main Street in Cedar Grove all of their married lives-62 years. LaMont worked at PCM in Port Washington, worked in maintenance for the Cedar Grove Schools and Richardson Lumber. In retirement he worked on Saturdays at the Cedar Grove Recycling Center.

LaMont was a member of Calvary OPC in Cedar Grove. He served as trustee for Calvary OPC and was a board member for Pine Haven Christian Home. LaMont bought a 1923 Model T touring car and restored it. He chauffeured the Victorian dressed ladies to Mariann's Victorian Tea Lunches for several years. He also enjoyed woodworking.
