Wolfgang Weissmann Obituary
Mequon, WI - In loving memory of Wolfgang Dieter "Jack" Weissmann, who passed away on June 23, 2020 at age 79 years. Beloved husband of 7 years to Patricia Mumm-Lovely of Mequon. Loving father of Wade Weissmann, Brian (Page) Weissmann, Jennifer (Jeffrey) Mendeloff and John Weissmann. Further survived by two sisters - Elise Winkler of Kalispell, MT and Astrid Dallman of Eugene, OR. Dear grandfather of Christian and Alex Weissmann and Max, Josh and Maya Mendeloff. Wolfgang was preceded in death by his first wife, Barbara Stroika and two brothers - Eugene Weissmann and Volker "Bodin" Weissmann. He will fondly be remembered by Carmen Flejter of Mequon and Stephanie Gigowski and Charles Graebner.
Wolfgang was born in Gnesen, Germany on September 8, 1940 to Eugene and Elizabeth Weissmann. At age 16, Wolfgang left Hannover, Germany for Milwaukee with his parents and siblings. After graduating from West Milwaukee High School, he attended Milwaukee School of Engineering and Layton School of Art where he honed his skills as a graphic artist and photographer, which led to a lifetime career and employment with such companies as Miller Brewing, GE Medical, Allen Bradley, DCI Marketing, FMC Bolens, Kohler, Schlitz Brewing and Penzey's Spices - among others. Several of Wolfgang's paintings grace the homes of his wife, children and business associates.
A celebration of Wolfgang's life will take place privately at a later date.

Im so sorry for your loss. I worked with Jack at Penneys and he was an amazing talented artist, as well as a bit of a creative character. I remember the day he showed me how he had created sandals by cutting off the top of his running shoes. It was a creative solution and did the job! Jack always spoke lovingly of his family and showed us photos. He was unique and will be missed.

Jack was wonderful. Never much keen on being in any way art directed he never the less time and time again managed to deliver so much more than what was asked. I wish I could of had more time with him both for his art and for his perspective. I am sad in this moment of loss but so very joyful for what he brought to my life.
Remember the next time you pour a beer you have 8/10ths a second to get the shot before the bubbles start combining and get too large. He lived in the details and I will miss him.
