John Charles Deising, 98, passed away peacefully on January 13, 2026, at 11:00 p.m. John lived a remarkable life of joy, resilience and a heart fulfilled by all family gatherings. He embraced every moment, making them brighter, memorable and fun.
John’s love of life spanned time at the family cottage at Okauchee Lake, downhill skiing in his 70’s, golfing, bowling, countless Packer games and cribbage tournament wins. He gave to others through: the Elks, president of the State Automobile Dealers Association and head of the Fond du Lac YMCA board.

John began working in the family automobile business in Milwaukee and then moved the dealership to Fond du Lac. John and his late wife Marcia (Hanna), 29 years, went on to have 5 children. He later married Carole Schubart, and the two spent 26 years together until Carole's passing in 2008.
