George E. Lendved, age 82 years, of Kewaskum was called home to be with the Lord on July 21, 2019 at Froedtert St. Joseph Hospital in the Town of Polk surrounded by his loving family. George was born on May 2, 1937 in Milwaukee to Leonard and Carol Lendved (Olson). He was united in marriage to his high school sweetheart, Judy Bodinger, on June 25, 1955 at Fountain Park United Methodist Church in Sheboygan. George and Judy resided in the New Fane area since 1958. George graduated from Central High School in Sheboygan (1955). He was a Maintenance Supervisor at the West Bend Company for 44 years, retiring in 1999. George had a great sense of humor and was an amazing joke teller. He enjoyed snowmobiling. George was a founding member of the New Fane Kettle Riders Snowmobile Club (1972). He served in the Northern Unit of the Kettle Moraine Snowmobile Association from 1977 to 1983, serving all of Sheboygan County. George continued on to become Vice President of the Association of Wisconsin Snowmobile Clubs (AWSC) located in Madison. He served as Vice President from 1982 to 1986, and then he became President of the AWSC from 1986 to 1990. George was a member at St. John Lutheran Church in New Fane where he was very active. Other than snowmobling, George enjoyed traveling, camping, farming, growing his favorite flower roses, and collecting John Deere garden tractors. He was an avid Trump supporter and FoxNews advocate. His pride and joy was his workshop; George always said, “I can fix anything!” and “I never worked a day in my life, what I did for a living was also my hobby!” He had a big heart and was always willing to help his neighbors and anyone else who asked. Those George leaves behind to cherish his memory include his wife of 64 years, Judy; three children, Larry (Nadine) Lendved, Nancy (Ed) Kleinke, and Bonnie (Darryl) Zanow; eight grandchildren, Julie (Paul) Strassman, Jessie (Terry) Jordan, Jon (Ali) Lendved, Carrie (Travis) Roell, Lindsey (Keefe) Olig, Cassie (Jeff) Lindgren, Brooke (Justin) Krueger, and Graeme (Jennifer) Zanow; three stepgrandchildren, Angela Kleinke, David Kleinke, and Lindsey (Jason) Mc-Claren; 19 great-grandchildren, six step- great- grandchildren, and one greatgreat- granddaughter due in August.
