John Paul Liegeois

John Paul Liegeois, 86, of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, passed away peacefully on Thursday, November 12, 2026.

Born on December 23, 1939, John grew up in Powers, Michigan, where he met the love of his life, Judy (née Vincent). Together, they built a warm, loving home and raised their family in Milwaukee. John was a dedicated, hardworking provider who spent many years at The Oilgear Company in Milwaukee before enjoying a well-earned retirement.

A man of deep faith, John was a devoted Catholic and active member of St. Charles Borromeo Parish, where he gave generously of his time volunteering. Outside of his service to his church, John knew how to enjoy life. He had a great love for music—especially country, 50s classics, and polka.

He was a skilled woodworker who took pride in crafting handmade wooden pieces, and he spent many happy hours at the bowling alley. A lifelong, loyal Wisconsin sports fan, John loved cheering on the Green Bay Packers and the Milwaukee Brewers—and was thrilled to see his Brewers finally win a World Series.

Above all else, John cherished his family. He is survived by his children, Bart (Sue) and Shelly (Tom); his beloved grandson, Jonathan (Rebeca); and his siblings, Rick and Therese, along with many nieces, nephews, extended family members, and friends who will miss him dearly. He was preceded in death by his cherished wife, Judy (Vincent), with whom he is now joyfully reunited in heaven, as well as his brother, Phil.

Service details are currently pending and will be announced by the family at a later date.
