Loren Charles Quaas

Loren Charles Quaas, born on January 18, 1938, in Boltonville, Wisconsin, passed away on November 20, 2022, in Cedarburg at the age of 84 years. Loren is survived by his loving wife of 55 years, Carol Ann (nee Kamke) Quaas; his daughter Suzanne (Timothy) Caldwell; son Brian and grandson William Caldwell.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Lucille Sylvia (nee Stautz) Quaas and Elmer Arthur Quaas; brother Neal Quaas; and son Jeffrey Allen Quaas.

Loren graduated from Cedarburg High School in 1956 and then served as a missionary in New Guinea for 3 years, building a hospital, church, and airplane landing strip while sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Upon return to the United States, he served his country in the Army from 1962-1964. He continued to work in the fields of Construction and Janitorial maintenance for 37 years, helping to build the original sanctuary of Alliance Bible Church in Mequon, of which he was a longtime member. He was also a dedicated member of the Cedarburg Fire Department since 1977 and was recognized with a Meritorious Service Award for his service to the city that he loved.

Loren particularly enjoyed helping others, especially with carpentry projects. He loved his family and looked forward to family get-togethers. Taking his young grandson, Will, to the Fire Department to sit in the trucks was one of his joys. Loren loved the Lord Jesus Christ and he loved his church, Alliance Bible Church, having served there in many different capacities for God’s glory.
