Jon’s interests were as diverse as his skills. An avid deer hunter, he found solace in the quiet of the woods. He was always ready to lend a hand on the farm helping his brothers, and enjoyed ATV riding. A master in the garden and with yard work, Jon took pride in cultivating beauty around him. He also had a passion for remodeling his home, where his handy and creative nature transformed spaces with love and care. Jon was the go-to guy for deep frying turkey for his family gatherings, he also enjoyed his BBQs, which brought friends and family together in celebration of good food and company.

 

A life member of the NRA, Jon’s younger years were filled with boating and golfing, activities that spoke to his adventurous heart. His legacy will be remembered through the many lives he touched with his generosity and his zest for life.

Jon’s legacy is carried on by his loving siblings, Daniel (Mary) Woggon of Camp Douglas, Catherine Gearing of Hixton, Sandra Woggon of Hustler, Deborah Peterson of Camp Douglas, and Donald (June) Woggon of Camp Douglas. He was a cherished brother-in-law to Louis Siller. Also surviving are his maternal Uncle Burton (Helen) Langendorf and Aunt Arlene (Chuck) Franke.
