Janet Eisenlohr Obituary

Janet M. Eisenlohr, 85, of Montague, went to be with Jesus, her Savior and Lord, on July 20, 2025, after courageous battles with dementia and cancer. Jan was born in Fenwick, Michigan, the daughter of Maurice "Mike" and Ruby (Lynn) Eisenlohr, on August 6, 1939. She graduated from Hart High School in 1958, and worked at Howmet and MasterTag, and retired from the United States Post Office after 20 years of service in Montague. Jan lived at Cherry Blossom Manor in Hart for almost the last four years of her life.

Jan loved to hunt, fish, golf, swim, go to the beach, play pool, and travel. In her retirement years, she enjoyed wintering in Brooksville, Florida. Jan was the life of the party. When she was present, there was plenty of laughter and fun. Most importantly, to know Jan was to know you were loved and appreciated.

Jan will be greatly missed by: her daughter, Pamela Poynter of Hart; sister, Diane (Frank) Silvis of Hart; nieces, Yvonne Greenwood and Christine Spoehr of Grand Rapids; nephews, Craig (Suzy) Eisenlohr of Scottville, Anthony Eisenlohr of Hart, and Michael (Heather) Eisenlohr of Shelby; and sister-in-law, Carole Eisenlohr of Hart.

Janet was preceded in death by: her parents, Mike and Ruby Eisenlohr; her grandchildren, Danielle Poynter and Michael Poynter; and her brothers, Gerald Eisenlohr and Charles Eisenlohr.

Funeral services will be conducted at 10:30 AM, Friday, July 25, 2025, at Elbridge Community Church, 2370 N 136th Ave, Hart, MI 49420, with visitation one hour prior to the service. Visitation will be held from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM, Thursday, July 24, 2025, at Beacon Cremation & Funeral Service, White Lake Chapel, 413 S. Mears Avenue, Whitehall, MI 49461. Interment will follow the service in Elbridge Township cemetery, in Hart, MI.
