Jeffrey Oudeans Obituary

Jeffrey (Jeff) Oudeans

Green Bay - Jeffrey Oudeans (Jeff), age 62, passed away on Saturday, June 26, 2021, at his home. Jeff was born June 15, 1959 to Bernard and Clarice (Resch) Oudeans of Green Bay. He graduated from Southwest High School in 1978 and hence began his 40 year dedicated employment in Brown Co. Government. Jeff was married to Darlene (Bley-Bartell) on November 16, 2006.

Retired in 2018; he was the ultimate foodie and enjoyed hanging with his Cocoa buddy and catching Old Western flicks in his beloved retirement recliner. Jeff portrayed a unique character that always sacrificed any self-recognition but rather relished in making others feel good with his goofy humor.

Jeff is survived by his wife; sisters Patty (Vandenbush) and Susie (Degrave) of Green Bay; five children; three step-children; and thirteen grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his parents; infant brother; and sister Peggy Oudeans.

Per Jeff's wishes, there will be no services.

Heartfelt thanks to Unity Hospice and special gratitude to Abby and Susie B. for providing loving care in his final months.

I am so very sorry for your loss. Jeff was a wonderful man. I always enjoyed our conversations "over the fence" when I was visiting my parents.
I hope you are able to find some comfort in your memories. My thoughts are with your family.

I´m so very sad to read about Jeff´s passing, especially at such a young age. I worked at the Brown County Library from 1984-2010 and worked with Jeff often during those years. He was always a joyful, very competent person andI was always happy when he was the one to show up to assist library personal in solving our problems. I´m sure he will be missed by everyone in Brown County government. My heartfelt sympathy to his family and friends. Mary Ryan
