Jane Mary Dohmen, age 91, died peacefully at Horizon Lawlis Family Hospice in Mequon, WI on June 6, 2019.

She was born in Milwaukee, WI to Philip John and Myrtle (Sampson) Fitzgibbon on June 30, 1927.

Jane was active in her children’s lives, helping out at school and serving on the PTA. After the family was grown they split their residence between Florida and Wisconsin, ultimately returning to Wisconsin full time in the Town of Belgium.

Jane was an avid reader, had an eye for design and could often be heard singing around her house. She was quick to give of her time and talent volunteering in her churches, teaching children to read, working at the Pebble House in Port Washington and helping the conversion of Squires Golf Club into the Forest Beach Migratory Preserve. A loving and caring woman, she will be missed.
