Obituary
Karen Jean Weinandt, 74, died Thursday July 13, 2023, at ThedaCare Regional Medical Center, Neenah. She was born June 10, 1949, in Appleton, daughter of the late Robert and Beverly (Shackelford) Jacobs. Karen married Anthony Weinandt Sr; on October 21, 1972. They spent 50 wonderful years together.
Karen's vivacious energy and contagious smile allowed her to excel in a multitude of jobs. She was most known around town as the friendly waitress at Waverly and George's Steak House, teller at Prospera and receptionist at Salon Expressions. Everyone flocked just to see her.
She enjoyed talking on the phone, baking (her famous black bottom cupcakes), traveling, the Brewers, but most importantly spending time with her husband, children, and grandchildren.
Karen is survived by her loving husband of 50 years, Tony; their three children: Amie (Daniel) Cisneros, Stacy (Josh) Berman, Anthony Jr. (Jeff Kivi) Weinandt; three grandchildren: Josh Jr, Halle, and Aryanna;
siblings: Lori (Rick) Jacob and Jeff (Cheryl) Jacobs. She was further preceded in death by her two twin children: Katie and Clem Weinandt.
Memorial Mass for Karen will be 11:00 AM on Saturday July 29, 2023, at ST. MARY'S CATHOLIC CHURCH, 528 Second St. Menasha, with Fr. Michael Lightner officiating. Visitation will be held at the church Saturday morning beginning at 9:00 AM until the 11:00 AM Mass. There will be a celebration of life at Prime-Time Bar and Grill 1150 Valley Rd, Menasha following the Mass. In lieu of flowers our family asks you to carry on what Karen was known for. Treat others with kindness and bring a smile to someone's face by paying it forward.
A special thanks to Doctor Laurin Bellg, MD and student nurse Chris, Cassie, and favorite respiratory therapist Felix for their exceptional care and support during her hospital stay.
“Karen you were the greatest wife, mother and grandmother!” Love always, Tony
