Jane E. Plechaty Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Jane Elizabeth Plechaty (Chapman) of Waukesha was called to heaven on July 6, 2022, at Oak Hill Terrace, Waukesha at the age of 93. She was born on December 28, 1928, in Waukesha, the daughter of Earl and Isabelle Chapman. Jane graduated from Waukesha High School in 1947. Long before Title IX became law, Jane performed on the high school synchronized swim team and played softball for the Dale Chevrolet women’s team. Jane moved to San Francisco to take a position in banking. She soon returned to attend to health issues of her mother. Jane met her husband, Joseph and married at St Joseph Catholic Church in Fort Atkinson on April 16, 1955. After brief stops in Fort Atkinson, Boston (where Joe was stationed in the Navy) and Sussex, Jane and Joe settled in the family home on Laflin Avenue in Waukesha in 1960. It was in this loving home Jane nurtured their six children, a short walk from St. Mary Catholic Church, where they were charter members. Jane served as president of the Christian Mothers, was a founding member of Stephen’s Ministry, sang in the choir and performed an array of tasks within the church. Her Catholic faith was so essential that every one of her children attended St. Mary Grade School and graduated from Catholic Memorial High School. Jane will be dearly remembered for her devotion to family and church, her uncompromising positive attitude and her warm, kind heart.
