Jim Tegtmeyer

Jim Tegtmeyer, age 61, of Green Bay, passed away unexpectedly at his home, Wednesday, December 3, 2025. He was born in Libertyville, IL, October 29, 1964, son of the late William and Judith (Gregory) Tegtmeyer and was a graduate of Libertyville High School, Class of 1982.

After graduation, Jim enrolled in Triton Technical College, where he trained in graphic arts. Jim welcomed two children, Scott and Leah, in Stillman Valley, IL. He relocated to Oregon, IL and Kiley joined the family.

In 2012, Jim moved to Green Bay, WI, as a proud Bears fan, where he resided currently. While living in Green Bay, Jim started his business, Skyone CNC, with his best friend, Mike LeRoy. He recently was working for Professional Fabrications, Inc., where he formed lasting friendships with his coworkers.

Jim was passionate about racing. He was heavily involved in off-road racing in Crandon and enjoyed racing RC cars. Attending live concerts was one of his greatest past times. Jim was an avid sports fan and especially loved cheering on his Chicago Bears, much to the dismay of the Packer fans. His family fondly remembers him for his sarcasm, unique sense of humor and quick wit. His greatest joy was spending time with his family.

Jim is survived by his children: Scott (Jessica) Tegtmeyer, Leah (Corey) Johnson and Kiley (Paul DiModica) Wight; 4 grandchildren: Renee, Luna, Ryan and Paxton and 2 siblings, Jill (Mike) Tegtmeyer-Corcoran and Jeffrey (Elizabeth) Tegtmeyer. He is further survived by his best friend, Mike LeRoy, nieces, nephews, other relatives and many friends.

He was preceded in death by his parents, a sister, Julie (Michael) Morrison.
