Obituary

BLUE MOUNDS / MAZOMANIE - James “Mort” Powers passed away on Wednesday, March 1, 2023, in the home he built, surrounded by his family. He was born on June 15, 1947, in Madison, Wis. Mort was joined in marriage to Susan Frame on May 8, 1976, in Mazomanie, Wis.


Mort is survived by his wife, Sue; his son, Matt; his daughter, Megan (David); loving relatives and many caring friends.


Mort enjoyed the outdoors, hunting, fishing, riding his UTV, and his time at the cabin. Many memories were made on vacations with friends.


He was an avid fan of the Packers, Brewers, Badgers and Mazomanie Mustangs baseball team. He was proud to be the president of the Mazomanie Mustangs Home Talent Booster Club for many years.


A celebration of life will be held at a later date.


Sad are the hearts that loved you,

Sad are the tears that fall,

But living our lives without you,

Is the saddest part of all.

Mort and I were friends from first grade until the end. He was a very caring and generous person and I learned so much from him. He was my best man when I got married and I was his best man when he got married. My heart broke when Sue called me and told me had passed away.

I am so glad that I was able to be friends with Mort. Everything he did for our Mustangs team was incredible whether it was preparing for our annual Pig Roast, collecting gate money during games or simply staying late on a Thursday night to have a beer with the team. He will be missed. Go Mustangs!

Oh Mort, back in the day it was so much fun, so many memories, so many laughs. My heart goes out to Sue and the kids, he was one of a kind and can never be replaced. Rest in peace my friend, I'll see you on the other side by reaching you on the CB radio on the Banana Land channel... Tom "Turtle" Ambler
