It is with deep sorrow that we mourn the passing of Jutta Hartlaub on July 25, 2026, at the age of 70.
Born in Bünde Germany. Jutta relocated to the United States alongside her mother, father, and siblings at 6 months old. She was an active member of the Spielmannszug Milwaukee for many years.
Jutta spent many years in the restaurant industry, always serving up customers with a smile and bright spirit. But out of all her jobs, being an Oma to Nieko and Kaylum was her favorite one. She treasured her grandchildren and embraced every moment with them.
She loved spending time at “Her Happy Place” up north at their trailer with Gunther, her devoted husband of 45 years. Through her journey, she touched many lives with her humor, smile, and perseverance. Her family was arguably her most important achievement in life.
Jutta is survived by her husband Gunther, children (late) Nicole and Jennifer. Two amazing grandchildren, Nieko and Kaylum, and many more family and friends.
A Celebration of Jutta’s Life will be held on August 15, 2026, at Krause Funeral Home, 21600 West Capitol Drive Brookfield, Wisconsin. Visitation from 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM. Service 1:00 PM. Interment at Wisconsin Memorial Park.
