John "Jack" Martin Janke

John “Jack” Martin Janke, 79, a resident of Cape Coral, FL for the past 18 years, formerly of Menomonee Falls, WI, passed away Tuesday, November 22, 2022 in Cape Coral. He was born November 20, 1943 in Port Washington, WI to Harold and Linda Janke, now deceased.

Jack served his country as a mechanic in the US Air Force. He worked at Halquist Stone as a heavy equipment operator and retired from this position after 30 years. In his retirement, Jack could be found either happily at the helm of his boat, or content in a chair reading a book while enjoying the Florida heat and humidity. Faith was an incredibly important part of Jack’s life. He was a member of Trinity Lutheran Church in Cape Coral.
