James "Jim" Kozlowski, 61, Green Bay, passed away Friday, July 10, 2026. He was born September 25, 1964, in Milwaukee to Jerome and Donna Mae (Person) Kozlowski.

Jim graduated from West High School, Class of 1984. He started working with Ameristaff and Koss in 1997 as a parts assembler. During his 28 years with Koss, he bonded with his coworkers - they were more like an extension of family. Both past and present coworkers took care of each other and watched out for each other and Jim was a beloved member of that great brotherhood. After his retirement in 2025, Jim remained close with all his former coworkers. He loved fishing, tending to his potted garden, going to Hometown Café, and spending time up north with friends.

He is survived by his mother, Donna; siblings, Barbara Shefchik, Kim (David) Schreiber, Mike (Tish) Kozlowski, Terry Kozlowski, and Pamela Kozlowski; nieces, nephews, other relatives, and friends.

Jim was preceded in death by his father, Jerome; brother-in-law, Brian Shefchik; aunts and uncles.

Friends and family will gather at Blaney Funeral Home, 1521 Shawano Ave., from 4pm to 7pm on Monday, July 20; Service to follow at 7pm. Burial will be at St. Benedict Catholic Cemetery. To send online condolences, please go to www.BlaneyFuneralHome.com.
