Mount Pleasant – Mrs. Janet D. Kintzler, 84, passed away at the Woods of Caledonia on December 27, 2017, after a lengthy battle with Alzheimer’s disease.

A lifelong resident of Racine, she was born on February 12, 1933, the daughter of the late Pedar and Lillian (nee: Larsen) Jeppesen.  On August 11, 1953, she married the love of her life, Burton David Kintzler.  He preceded her in death on July 13, 2007.

Janet was a lifelong member of Bethania Lutheran Church.  After 25 years, she retired from the business office at Carthage College.  During retirement Janet and Burt loved vacations in Pass Christian, MS along with several trips abroad including finding numerous relatives in Denmark.  Most important to Janet was her family and friends and the times they shared.  She will be deeply missed.

Family and friends are invited to meet at Bethania Lutheran Church (4120 Wright Ave) on Wednesday, January 3, 2018 for a visitation from 10:00 a.m. – 11:00 a.m.  A service celebrating her life will follow at 11:00 a.m. with Rev.
