John P. Witkauskas

I didn't know John well, but he has be in my daily prayers since we found out about his diagnosis. I would bring him a sandwich on occasions when he was in the shop looking at post cards. Now I hope John will put in a good word for us. His kind soul is at peace now. My sincere sympathy to the family.

John was my friend for many years and we had many dealings and conversations over the last 30 years. I sold him postcards at my shop and we gossiped about everything from the Packers to politics. I will miss him. My sincerest condolences Gordon Kirsten (Gordons Antiques of Grafton 262-377-4313)

A Tribute to John Witkauskas

My name is Jeff Fulton, one of Johns friends from Chicago. I met John at Sheil Center, Northwestern University's campus Catholic center, through a mutual friend. It was 1968.

John was a couple of years ahead of us, so he quickly showed us the ropes, and Sheil became the center of our social life. The three of us became known simply as the boys.

And boys we were, discussing all those things young guys talk about. We did a lot...

John and I became friends while both working as ticket agents at Mitchell International in Milwaukee. We quickly discovered many things in common; we were both Journalism majors, both from Sheboygan, both South High grads, and we grew up within blocks of each other. He was the perfect co-worker in our business, nothing ruffled him! He also had a great sense of humor, was a wonderful listener, and a caring friend. My husband Gary and I send our sincere condolences to the Witkauskas family....

My condolences to the family. I worked with John on many of his casino excursions. He was always upbeat and willing to do anything for you. He will be missed by many.

My condolences to the family. John was such a nice guy, a real character and so easy to talk to. He will be missed!!

Dear Witkauskas Family:

I was so sorry to read of John's passing. I remember him from our days at South High and at Northwestern, and then in recent years when our paths occasionally crossed in Sheboygan. He also was a friend to my mom and dad on their weekly bus trips to Oneida for Bingo and slot play. I am confident John is at peace in the glory of Heaven.

May God bless all of you.
