OSBORN, Eugene C.
28 Nov 1926- 26 Feb 2006

Osborn, Eugene C MADISON - Eugene C. Osborn, age 79, died
peacefully on Sunday, Feb. 26, 2006, at his home. A successful
local businessman, he was born the son of Eugene E. and Dorthy
(Cnare) Osborn on Nov. 28, 1926, in a house located at 245
Langdon St. He was a resident of either 245 or 241 Langdon St.
for more than 79 years. Eugene graduated from Central High
School in 1945. There he met the love of his life, Jannette
Lindauer, whom he wed on Sept. 8, 1948. Together they had two
sons, E. Kurt and Mark A. Osborn. Eugene also attended the
University of Wisconsin-Madison where he became a member of
the Theta Chi fraternity. Eugene started his business career
by purchasing a gas station located at the corner of Park and
Lakeside streets from his father. After a short stint, Eugene
became a successful realtor, spending 20 plus happy years.
Once he retired from realty, Eugene, along with his brother,
Duane, owned and operated rental property on Langdon and State
streets until the time of his passing. The two brothers also
developed a family farm in McFarland. Eugene's favorite
hobbies were mostly outdoors related, including: fishing, long
rides in the country with friends and family, and especially
hunting. He will always be missed by those who walked the
woods and fields with him. Eugene could also play a mean game
of cards of all varieties (poker, pinchole, sheephead, euchre,
cribbage, gin and many more). Eugene is survived by his loving
wife of 57 years, Jannette; her two sons, E. Kurt Osborn and
Mark A. Osborn; four grandchildren, Adam (Jeanette) Osborn,
Kristin (Mark) Krueger, Ryan Osborn and Marissa Osborn; a
great-granddaughter, Emma Krueger; his brother, Duane Osborn;
and many nieces, nephews, cousins and friends. Funeral
