Jane Peck

Jane Peck, age 80, of Elkhorn, WI, passed away peacefully at her home on Thursday, September 10, 2026. She was born on December 25, 1945, in Burlington, WI, the daughter of the late Gene and Alice (Glutz) Katzman. Jane was united in marriage to Harvey H. Peck, and together they shared 44 years of marriage until his passing on December 15, 2011. Jane graduated from East Troy High School with the Class of 1964 and remained a proud and active alumna throughout her life.

Jane had a warm and generous spirit. She found joy caring for her flowers and plants, as well as baking for family and friends who gathered around her table. She was equally happy with a deck of cards in hand, delighting in the laughter and friendly competition of game days with her friends. Jane was dedicated to helping others, generously giving her time to her church, her library, the German Settlement Cemetery, and the East Troy High School Alumni Scholarship Fund, and she extended particular compassion to those who needed it most, assisting wards of the state through guardianship. Through it all, Jane was, first and foremost, a loving and devoted wife, mother, and grandmother.

Jane's memory will be carried forward by her two children, Renee (Brian Roberts) Peck and Douglas (Amy) Peck, and by her five grandchildren, Katie and Anna Kopplin, Ryan, Eric, and Mason Peck, who brought her great pride and joy. She is also survived by her brother, Tom (Ginger) Katzman, and her sister-in-law, Darlene Katzman. Jane was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Harvey, her parents, and four siblings: Nancy Katzman, Patricia (Richard) Muehlbauer, Richard Katzman, and William Katzman.
