Scott J. Opgenorth

Scott J. Opgenorth, age 67, of Sheboygan Falls, passed away on Monday, December 16, 2024, at St. Luke’s Medical Center in Milwaukee.

He was born in Sheboygan on April 22, 1957, to Gerhardt and Virginia (Klein) Opgenorth. He graduated from South High School and continued his education at LTC. He was employed at Kohler Company for over 20 years and previously at UPS. He was a member of the trading card club. 

Scott was an avid fisherman and loved spending his summers sitting by the lake. He also enjoyed watching sunrises and sunsets while walking at Terre Andre State Park and going to the stock car races. In his younger years, he raced motocross. Scott was a kind and gentle soul and even after life, he selflessly gave to others through the gift of organ donation.
