Jon McGettigan Obituary
Jon married Judith A. Roseleip on October 1, 1960, at Holy Rosary Church in Darlington, WI. He served in the Army from August 1962 until August 1964 as a military policeman. Following his military service, Jon was employed and retired from CUNA Mutual Group.
Jon is survived by his wife of 65 years, Judith; his 3 sons Michael (Amy), Miles (Misty), and Jon Paul (Rhonda); 6 grandchildren Brittany (Adam), Billy (Tiaha), Lily, Grayson, Cody, and Allyson; 4 great grandchildren Madelyn, Michael, Dalton, and Luella; siblings Tim (Annette), Molly (Alan), Jim (Kathy); sisters-in-law Bev (Bob) Anderson and Kathy Roseleip; and many nieces and nephews.
He was preceded in death by his parents, mother & father in-law Ruth and Gordon Roseleip, and brother-in-law Denny Roseleip.
Jon will be remembered for his passion of the outdoors and tipping an Old Milwaukee with his family and friends. He will be sadly missed but never forgotten.
A special thank you to the Agrace Hospice staff.
Per Jon's request, there will be no services.
