Jennifer Baranowski (nee Wells), age 61, was born to eternal life on Monday, January 10, 2022, peacefully at home after a two-and-a-half-year battle with cancer.
Jenny was born in Milwaukee, WI to Irvin and Gertrude (nee Ahrens) Wells on June 23, 1960. She graduated from Oak Creek High School in 1978. After high school, she married the love of her life, Allan, on July 22, 1978. Together, they had one daughter, Athena.
She worked as a bank supervisor at Continental Savings Bank (now Westbury Bank) in Bay View, WI for several years before becoming disabled. She later moved to Caledonia, WI.
Her persistence and determination in the face of her disability were an inspiration to all who knew her and her generosity made the lives of those who she touched that much brighter.
She was preceded in death by her parents, her brother Irv (Connie), her sister Gail (Bob) Edwards, and her brother Dave (Carol).
She is survived by her sister Trudy, her brother Roger, her sister Debbie Stone, and her brother Dan (Liz). She is further survived by several nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.
A celebration of Jenny's life will be held on Tuesday, January 18, 2022, at Prasser-Kleczka Funeral Home, 6080 S. 27th Street, from 2-6 pm with Reverend Carmelo Giuffre officiating at 6 pm.
Relatives and friends are welcome to meet with the family at the celebration at Prasser-Kleczka and at the interment on Wednesday, January 19, 2022, at Holy Sepulcher Cemetery, 3800 E. College Avenue, at 11 am.
