Jaimie Markwell (formerly Kott), age 55, of St Charles, Illinois (also Gilbert, Arizona) passed away peacefully on Wednesday, October 1, 2025, surrounded by her loving family after her valiant battle with ovarian cancer. During her battle, she was undoubtedly nothing but resilient, determined and brave.
She was born on January 25, 1970 in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin to Linda Pacetti (formerly Thielmann) and Richard Kott, and was raised by Linda and William Pacetti.
Jaimie is survived by her daughter, Abigail Kott of Orem, Utah; her parents Linda and William Pacetti of Lake Geneva, Wisconsin; her brother Christian Kott of Morris, Illinois; her brother William Pacetti Jr. of Verona, Wisconsin and her brother Scott Pacetti of Michigan.
Jaimie had a love for adventure and thrills, whether that was hiking in the Superstition Mountains in Arizona or making many new friends wherever she went. Jaimie was charismatic, outgoing, sassy and had the biggest, most caring heart. Her presence always brought liveliness into any room she entered. Jaimie was a daredevil through and through, and never backed down from a challenge. Jaimie was a dearly beloved mother, daughter, sister and friend and she never failed to make life interesting and exciting.
The family will be hosting a Celebration of Life to honor Jaimie’s life in Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin at Siebkens Resort, 284 S Lake St, Elkhart Lake, WI 53020, PAM’s Restaurant on October 18th, 2025 from 1:00 - 5:00 PM.
