Obituary published on Legacy.com by Sunset Options Funerals & Cremations Inc. on May 14, 2024.
Jack A. Schramm of Franklin, WI entered eternal life on Saturday May 11th 2024. He was born on September 20th, 1951 to Frank H. and Marie L. (Hurula) Schramm and was the second of five children. He grew up in Grand View, WI where he graduated from Drummond High School in 1969. He began working construction with other family members and moved to the Milwaukee area. He married Beth R. Timm on November 9th, 1985 and settled in Franklin. They raised two sons Frank A. and Matthew D. Schramm.
Jack enjoyed spending time with family and friends and would love telling stories and cracking jokes. He loved his time in the outdoors, specifically boating, fishing and hunting; as well as taking rides on his Harley motorcycle. Jack worked over 40 years as a skilled carpenter and spent most of that time with C.G. Schmidt retiring in 2012.
He is survived by his wife Beth of 38 years; sons Frank of Franklin, WI and Matthew (Anjelica) of Chippewa Falls, WI; grandchildren Wyatt D. and Makenna K. Schramm of Chippewa Falls; brother Timothy (Linda) Schramm of Grand View, WI; and numerous uncles, aunts, nieces, nephews and cousins that he loved dearly.
He is preceded in death by his parents Frank and Marie Schramm, brothers Jeffrey and Thomas Schramm and sister Debra Miller.
