Scott James Mondloch

Scott James Mondloch passed away on January 30, 2026, at the age of 68. Scott was born to James and Bernadette Mondloch on April 25, 1957, and spent his youth on a farm just two miles west of Adell, Wisconsin. He attended Random Lake High School before serving in the US Navy serving in Vietnam. Scott was loved by Germaine Ditter, affectionately called “bughead”, and they resided in a cozy cabin in the woods of the Kettle Moraine on the still waters of the North side of Long Lake.

Scott “Mondo” would share that he was blessed by the bond of Harley riders. For over 38 years Germaine and him spent time together on the road, and although at times the road got bumpy, they always remembered ‘tuck and roll’. They will be riding together again one day.

Scott was a machinist, with ability to breathe life into any sleeping unused machine in the shop. He valued teaching younger kids in the shop how to turn iron chunks into moving metal that goes down the road, flies past you on the lakes, or sows the harvest in the fields. He had an engineer and artist perspective to build, repair, and solve problems. He constructed the home he shared with Germaine on Long Lake and assembled his own Harley Davidson knucklehead motorcycle piece by piece. Scott was passionate about music and was a skilled trumpet player. Each year during his teen years, Scott would play Taps at local cemeteries honoring Veterans on Memorial Day.

As an active boater on Long Lake, Scott would also express a special thank you to all the neighbors on the lake and the summer times they shared listening to 70’s rock music. He was very appreciative of the support and care of his neighbors. Scott truly valued everyone that was a part of his life, and he always had the kindest words when describing his friends in the area. He was always there to lend a tool or instruction how to use the tool when you visited the garage.

Scott was preceded in death by his parents, grandparents, and three of his siblings Rick Mondloch, Julie Mondloch and Maria Mondloch. Scott is survived by his loved one, Germaine Ditter and her boys Andy, Christopher, and Ryan, and his siblings Linda (Jim) Loescher, Peggie Mondloch, Paul (Marilyn) Mondloch, John Mondloch and Sarah (Chris) Sulzen, along with numerous nieces, nephews and friends.

A celebration of life is scheduled for this summer to allow family and friends from out of state to attend.

Scott was his own man – thoughtful and mindful of the moment. He helped all those around him. Friends and family will miss the long conversations accompanied by a beer or whiskey or two solving the world’s problems in Scott’s garage. In the words of the Allman Brothers: “Trouble no more, worry no more.”
