LODI - Jeffrey L. Harrenstein, age 69, passed away on Tuesday, February 18, 2025, at Sauk Prairie Health Care with his family by his side.

He was born on July 12, 1955, at Amarillo Air Force Base, TX, the son of Vernon and Janice (Dyslin) Harrenstein.

Jeff graduated from Freeport High School in 1973. He married Lori Leatherberry April 11, 1987, at First Presbyterian Church in Lodi, WI.

Jeff owned and operated Harrenstein Wood Floors since 1986. He was a true craftsman, known for his workmanship, dependability, and taking time to get every detail right. Jeff liked learning about and getting to know his customers, many becoming long-time friends.

Over the years Jeff enjoyed fishing, bow hunting, spending time with friends, being out in the sunshine, and boating. He loved listening to many types of music, playing his violin, and reading the Bible. But he loved mostly time spent with his son and grand dog, Raleigh.

Jeff is survived by his wife of 37 years Lori; son, Jeremy Harrenstein; brother, Kurt (Karla) Harrenstein; three sisters-in-law, Becky Harrenstein, Bonita Prucha, Gale (Ron) Nelson; brother-in-law, Gary (Lucy) Leatherberry; nieces and nephews, Bryan (Lisa) Harrenstein, Laura (Colin) Deusa, Gary (Stacy) Prucha, Craig Prucha, Kristen (Josh) Klein, Deb (Bob) Volk, Ang (John) Griffing, Tom (Jen) Leatherberry, Rich (Bonnie) Nelson, and Kim (Collin) Kreklow; 18 great nieces and nephews; many friends and extended family.

He was preceded in death by his parents; brother, Mike Harrenstein; infant sister; father and mother in-law, Bonard and Dorotha Leatherberry; sister-in-law, Diane Leatherberry; and brother-in-law, Harold Prucha.

A Celebration of Life is being planned for a later date.

Memorials may be made to the family to be donated to places special to Jeff.

A special thank you to our loving supportive family and friends at this time of unexpected loss and Sauk Prairie Healthcare for the compassionate care Jeff received.

The Bend in the Road - Sometimes we come to life’s crossroads, and we view what we think is the end. But God has a much wider vision, and He knows it’s only a bend. The road will go on and get smoother and after we’ve stopped for a rest, the path that lies hidden beyond us is often the path that is best. So, rest and relax and grow stronger, let go and let God share your load and have faith in a brighter tomorrow. You’ve just come to a bend in the road. ~ Helen Steiner Rice
