Publish in a newspaper

Jacquelyn (Jacque) C. Tetzlaff, 70, died in the care of her youngest sister and her family on March 26, 2025. Jacque was born July 26, 1954, in Appleton. She graduated from Appleton East High School. Jacque lived most of her life in Appleton. She worked in and managed restaurants for 21 years. Later in life, she worked at Concentrix for 25 years and part time at Best Buy for 9 years at the same time where she engaged in her favorite activity, talking to people. Jacque enjoyed hanging out with family and friends. She was great to have around if you needed someone to enliven a gathering. She enjoyed going to friends' cottages and having the best time ever, thanks to the Wittwers.
Her laughter and sense of adventure made us laugh, especially in our younger days, doing fire drills running around the car at a stop sign. She made many lifelong friends and inspired others by training new employees at her restaurant management jobs. Jacque will forever be loved and never forgotten.
Jacque is survived by her brother: Johnny Tetzlaff; sisters: Jennifer (Zac) Halter and Jan Tetzlaff; six nieces; two nephews; and one grandniece. She is preceded in death by her parents Jim and LaVerne (Boldt) Tetzlaff and her oldest of two brothers, Jimmy.
We want to thank the caregivers at Aurora Hospice for the dedicated care they provided to Jacque.

So many fond memories and fun times with Jacque. Far too soon to say goodbye. I'll always remember our trip out east that we took together. Sixteen hours in the car with her and I got to say two sentences! Oh well, her stories were always better than mine. Tears and smiles. Love Tom.

So sorry to hear about Jacque... She was a friend of our family for close to 50 years. It was always a good time when Jacque was around. I have many fond memories of her time spent with our family. My sincere condolences to The Tetzlaff family.
