Mark Baumgartner

Mark E. Baumgartner, age 64, of Sheboygan passed away unexpectedly on August 19, 2018 surrounded by his loving family.
He was born in Milwaukee on January 26, 1954 to the late Julius and Constance (Masset) Baumgartner. He attended local schools and graduated from West Milwaukee High School. He continued his education at UW Whitewater receiving his Bachelor's Degree in Business Administration. On September 24, 1977 he married Charlene (Zingler) at St. John Lutheran Church in Milwaukee.
Mark was employed at Kohler Company for nearly 40 years where he held various positions in management. He began his career as a foreman in Pottery Inspection and continued in leadership roles in Enamel Inspection, Quality Systems, Cast Operations, Forming and Sanitary KOS.
Mark loved the family cottage in Phelps, WI where he would go four wheeling, fishing, snowmobiling, watching the hummingbirds and just sitting on the deck with a drink in hand with the ones he loved. He also loved watching his favorite Wisconsin Sports teams and cheering on his grandsons at their hockey games. Family meant everything to Mark, and he left behind many great memories for his children and grandchildren to look back on. He was a selfless man who would give anything for his family, including his garage and boat.
