Bernard "Ben" Schoorlemmer, age 92, passed away on April 5, 2025, in Elkhorn, Wisconsin, due to complications from a stroke.

Born on April 11, 1932, in Zwolle, Holland, Ben immigrated to the United States in 1962 with his wife, Jeanine. They made their home in Chicago, where they established a foreign language translation service which their son Patrick joined in 1990. Fluent in seven languages, Ben was passionately dedicated to this work until retiring in 2020.

Ben and Jeanine also resided in Cape Coral, Florida, before eventually settling in Troy, Wisconsin.

Ben is survived by his wife Jeanine; son Patrick and daughter-in-law Dawn; and grandchildren Thomas, Ethan, and Anna.

The family extends heartfelt gratitude to the doctors, nurses and staff at Aurora Lakeland Medical Center, Holton Manor, and Aurora Health at Home for their skilled and compassionate care.

In accordance with Ben's wishes, there will be no visitation or services.
