Jacquelyn Kay was born Dec. 28, 1948, to Wilbert and Gretchen (Henderson) Wiethorn. She graduated from M.F.L. High School in 1967.
Jacquelyn was united in marriage with Loren Radloff Nov. 25, 1967, at United Methodist Church in Monona. She was a very devoted loving wife and dedicated to her family. Four children were born to this union. Jacque and Loren farmed together for many years until all the kids were in school, then she began working at Gencor-Bituma in the accounting department. She later went to work as the city clerk for Monona until she retired in 2015.
Jacque was very active in the Church and community. She enjoyed reading, sitting on her porch watching the wildlife and sunsets, having her “girls outing,” and any time with family and friends. You could find her at the race track and tractor pulls on the weekends watching her boys. She loved to sit around a campfire and admire the stars and moon. But most of all, her pride and joy were her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She rarely missed a game, meet, dance recital/performance, band/chorus concerts and musicals – even when there were multiple events going on the same night, you would see Jacque at all the events. Her arms were always open to everyone and she gave the best hugs and was always snuggling with the little ones. She was best known as “Grandma Jacque.”
Jacque is survived by her four children: Steven (Stephanie) Radloff of Postville, Kevin (Bonnie) Radloff of Ridgeway, Stacie Radloff (Jason Welch) of Monona and Brian Radloff (Ashlea Coenen) of Monona; 13 grandchildren: Heather (Tyler) Berry, Cody (Casey) Radloff, Ryan (Renae) Dahl, Christopher (Kristin) Piper, Zachary Piper, Zachary Radloff (Autumn Schuety), Derek (Tonya) Radloff, Matthew Radloff, Bret (Samantha) Corlett, Allison Corlett, Dylan Corlett, Brookelyn and Bryce Radloff; 10 great-grandchildren; and five siblings: Kurt (Shelby) Wiethorn of Cedar Falls, Karen Cartwright of Ankeny, Betty Howard of Monona, Judy Mulholland of Cedar Rapids and Brad (Debbie) Wiethorn of Arizona.
Jacque was preceded in death by her husband, Loren, Jan. 13, 1997; parents, Wilbert and Gretchen Wiethorn; and two brothers-in-law, Roger Cartwright and LeRoy Howard.
Leonard-Grau funeral Home and Cremation Service of Monona helped the family with arrangements.
