Mr. Mark Schlenvogt passed away at his home in Fredonia Wednesday, December 8, 2021. He was 76 years old.
Mark was born on January 29, 1945, son of Henry and Leona Groth Schlenvogt. He grew up in the Town of Port Washington and attended local schools. Mark was united in marriage with Carol Krause. The couple settled on the farm in the Town of Fredonia and raised their three children. She preceded him in death in 2019.

He is further survived by four grandchildren: Morgan Leider, Jeremy, Audrey, and Cody Schlenvogt, sisters Pat (the late Nic) Schmit of Cedarburg and Rosalie Graham of Port Washington, nieces, nephews, other family and friends.
