Lynnette VanBeckum

Lynnette Marie VanBeckum, age 68 of Oxford passed away peacefully Sunday, March 1, 2026 at her home with her husband by her side. Lynnette was born in Kenosha on September 6, 1957 to Calvin and Geraldine (Foreman) Kersten. Lynnette was a very private and unassuming woman, whose inner strength exceeded even her own expectations. She was unwaveringly loyal to her husband, and eternally proud of her son. Married to Donald for over 43 years, their marriage endured through the best and worst that life had to offer.

Lynnette is survived by her husband, Donald, son, Justin and niece, Jamie. In addition to her parents, she is also preceded in death by her brother, Randall Kersten, her cousin, Kathy Meronek and Michael Ausloos.

Lynnette will always be deeply loved by all her knew her.

Honoring Lynnette’s wishes, private services will be held.

Crawford Funeral and Cremation Service of Oxford and Montello is honored to be serving the family. www.CrawfordFH.com
