Dean J. Beischel

Entered God’s Kingdom on Monday, November 9, 2026, at the age of 90. Beloved husband of Jane (nee Scharine) for 65 years. Loving dad of Curtis (Joanne) Beischel, Connie (Scot) Tennyck, and Coleen (Rodney) Kuske. Proud grandpa of Greg (fiancée Brynn) Beischel, Sarah (Lee) Johnson, Jeffrey (Jenn) Tennyck, Josh (Becca) Tennyck, Ashley (Julio) Negron, Kelly Becker, and Brandon (Madison) Kuske. Loving great-grandpa of Lola Johnson, Kaden Tennyck, Ellie Tennyck, Paisley and Harper Becker, with a baby girl Tennyck on the way.

Dear brother of Shirley Aman and Karen (the late Bruce) Pederson. Also survived by nieces, nephews, other relatives, friends, and his furry companion, Autumn. Dean was preceded in death by his parents, Urban and Dorothy Beischel; and his siblings, Joe (the late Mary Lou) Beischel, Dick (the late Katy) Beischel, Barbara (the late Mike) Kevin, and Gayle (the late Jerry) Golinski.

Dean was born on August 19, 1936, in Fort Atkinson, Wisconsin. He graduated from Whitewater College with a degree in business, but the most meaningful part of his college years was meeting Jane, with whom he would share 65 years of marriage. In 1960, Dean was called to serve with the Army National Guard and was stationed in Tacoma, Washington.

Dean devoted his entire professional career to M & I Bank. During his 33 years with the bank, he served as president and CEO of three branches before retiring at age 57.

Outside of work, Dean enjoyed adventure and the outdoors. He earned his pilot’s license and owned a Piper Cherokee 180, taking his love of exploring to the skies. He and Jane enjoyed traveling, especially throughout the American West, and he looked forward to fishing trips to Canada. He also loved going to stock car races.

Above all, Dean was deeply proud of his family. He loved watching his grandchildren play football, basketball, and baseball, and cheering them on in cheerleading. Whatever the sport, the chance to watch his grandchildren do something they loved made him happy. His presence, encouragement, and pride in them will be lovingly remembered.

Visitation will take place Saturday, November 14, 2026 from 10:00-11:00 AM at Trinity Lutheran Church (7900 Nicholson Rd., Caledonia, WI 53108) with a Funeral Service to follow at 11:00 AM.
