To all of the customers and friends, both old and new, of Lake Havasu
City, it is with a very heavy heart that I announce the June 19, 2015
passing of my father, Carl P. Janke. He was 91 years young and a 38-
year-resident of Lake Havasu City - a town that he really loved and
cared about.

Carl has been a bartender all over the Lake Havasu area and retired
from the Quality Inn in October 2013.

Prior to his life in Lake Havasu, he lived in Wisconsin where he and
his wife, Doris (who preceded him in death) owned and operated several
successful businesses. The last tavern they owned was Carl’s Dutch
Door in St. Germain, Wis.

He was a World War II veteran who served eight years in the US Navy
and received two honorable discharges, several medals and ribbons for
his service. He was a member of the Eagles, VFW and the Elks - all in
the Lake Havasu City area.

Carl was a friend to one and all and will be remembered for his
wonderful sense of humor and good nature. He is beloved by his family
and will be greatly missed every day.

Carl is survived by his two sons, Michael (Deborah) Janke of St.
George, Utah and Peter Janke of Mesa; and a brother, Edward (Eileen)
Janke of Glendale, Wis. He was the dear grandfather of Caitlin and
Erin Janke, Megan Young and Jason Janke; great-grandfather of Addison
Janke, Angelo and Gauge Orozco and Benjamin Janke; and his many
friends here in Lake Havasu and Wisconsin.

Services were placed in the care of Lietz-Fraze Funeral Home and
Crematory.

Thoughts and condolences may be sent to the family at www.lietz-
