John Falter Obituary DeForest, WI: In loving memory of Columbia County Rep, John William Falter.

John William Falter of DeForest, WI, passed away at the age of 64 on Friday, August 11, 2023, as a result of injuries sustained in a motorcycle accident.

John was born on October 19, 1958 in Madison, Wisconsin to William and Carol (Booth) Falter. He was the fifth of nine children. After graduating in 1977 from DeForest High School, John started a long career as a machinist and was very skilled in his trade, his obituary read.

John was joined in marriage on October 1, 1983 to Judy (Schwalbach) Falter and they were married for 32 years. Together they had two daughters, Alison and Kari and two granddaughters, Adri and Lucie.

John lived life to the fullest, always seeking out his next adventure or travel spot. Whether it was on his snowmobile, motorcycle, or in his Corvette, John found the best spot to be and knew 10 different ways to get there.

He loved his home state of Wisconsin and likely traveled the majority of its roads in his lifetime.

Feel free to drop condolences messages and prayers for the family and friends of the deceased as it will go a very long way at this difficult time.
