John Michael Penoske ("Johnny P")
Franklin – Passed away September 7, 2021 at the Vitas Hospice in West Allis.
John was born on August 18, 1963 to his parents James (deceased) and Mary Jane (nee Guse). Also survived by his sister Sue (Tom) Kelm, brother Jim (Lisa) Penoske and sister Diane (Alan) Stanislawski. Also survived by nephews and nieces, TJ (Kristine) Kelm, Jim Penoske III, Amy (Brad) Schrubbe, Mary (Sam) Frentzel, Julie Stanislawski and David Stanislawski and Great nephews and nieces, Raymond and Atticus Kelm, Hailey and Brysen Schrubbe, Madison, Walter and Riley Frentzel. Also survived by other relatives and friends.
He passed away all too soon but his suffering has finally ended.
He began at age 11 helping a neighbor Pete Ensweiler repair cars in his garage and was a good student. After high school he attended MATC and became an auto mechanic and worked at Holz Motors for 25 years specializing in transmissions.
He suffered two strokes in 2010 and lost partial use of his hand and left his job. Fixing cars was his passion. He will be greatly missed by special friend Julie Buss and Joel, Dave, Jeff, John, Andy, Jeff, Rob, Ryan and Gabe. We would also like to thank Vitas Hospice for the exceptional care during his last few days.
In lieu of flowers donations to Alcoholics Anonymous or a charity of your choice would be appreciated.
