Norbert "Nubby" Glenn Jorgenson Jr, age 86, born and raised in the Green Bay area, passed away Friday, November 21, 2025. He was born January 10, 1939 to the late Norbert and Harriet (Cornelius) Jorgenson.
Norbert attended Cormier School in Ashwaubenon where he won awards for his drawing and artistic skills. After graduating from East High School in Green Bay, Norbert served in the United States Army and was a Vietnam Veteran. Later in life he took up various forms of art, including taxidermy, drawing, and painting. He was an avid watcher of Bob Ross and learned to paint oil on canvas.
He loved spending time outdoors, hunting, and especially fishing. He frequently went to camp and fish on Turtle-Flambeau Flowage in Northern Wisconsin with his son Eric, often inviting family and friends. It was on one of these fishing trips he caught the largest fish of his life, a legendary sized largemouth bass, which sadly had to be released.
Norbert is survived by his son, Eric Jorgenson, daughter-in-law, Donna Elkey, and Granddaughters Stephani and Samantha Elkey. In addition, he will be deeply missed by his sisters: Carol (Owen) Stewart, Chetek; Barbara (Larry) Reynolds, Oneida, and Sister-in-Law, Kathryn "Kitty" Jorgenson; is brothers: Harold (Mary) Jorgenson, Oneida; and Donald Jorgenson, Seymour. He was preceded in death by his parents; son Norbert "Bert" Elkey; daughter Yvonne Jorgenson; his brothers: Russel Jorgenson, Alan Jorgenson, Gerald Jorgenson; his sister Sharon Jorgenson; brother-in-law, Thomas Prendiville, Sr.; nephew, Thomas "Tommy" Prendiville; and great niece, Kayla Phillps; and great-nephews Mathu Giese and Collin Reynolds.
