Frank Langholff Obituary
Frank was born on May 18, 1931, in Jefferson, WI, the son of Frank and Gertrude (Schemm) Langholff. He was confirmed at St. John's Ev. Lutheran Church of Jefferson and attended the school there. Frank was a devout Christian man who loved his family dearly. He was employed at Stoppenbach's of Jefferson, Ready Serve of Fort Atkinson, and a part-time farmer with his brother, Erwin. Frank was an avid vegetable gardener and enjoyed being outside, feeding the birds. His Belgium Draft Horses that he kept as pets, were a passion, and Frank owned many of them over the years. His last horse, "Dan", was very special to Frank and people would stop at the family farm to admire his beauty and give him treats. Dan even graced the front page of the Daily Jefferson County Union when he died. Frank will be missed by his family and friends.
He is survived by: his siblings Edna Cooper, Ruth Langholff, and Bertha "Birdie" Langholff all of Jefferson; and nieces and nephews Barbara (Larry) Ketterman, Connie (Jim) Haag, James (Linda) Griffin, Karen (David) Moore, Wayne Langholff, Cindy (Brian) Dempsey, Carol Cooper, Russ (Tammy) Cooper, Diane (Bill) Higgins, and Tracie Stammer. Frank is also survived by a number of other relatives and friends.
Frank is preceded in death by his parents and siblings Clarence "Buddy" Langholff, Marian Downs, Fred "Fritz" Langholff, Myrtle Griffin, and Erwin Langholff and his nephews Ronnie Downs and Paul Downs.
A private family funeral service will be held on at the Olsen-Gibson Funeral Home with Rev. Joshua Martin presiding. Frank will be laid to rest at Union Cemetery of Jefferson following the funeral service.
