Jeff Mengelt passed away on September 10, 2022, from complications following a stroke. He was 70 years old.
Jeff had many interests, ranging from travel, reading and music to specialty beers, wine and cooking. He loved studying history, especially that of WWII, and for 20 years volunteered for the DNR assisting with Chinook salmon-rearing at the Strawberry Creek Weir. He was proud to serve as a Wisconsin State Trooper until his retirement in 1990.
Jeff liked people and they enjoyed being around him. We’re going to miss his sense of humor; his silliness and love of being a smart-ass made us all laugh.
