James N. Krogmann, 87, of Masonville, IA, died on Tuesday, February 27, 2024, at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics in Iowa City, IA.

James was born on November 10, 1936, in Petersburg, IA, the son of Paul J. and Myrtle (Wilgenbusch) Krogmann. He attended the Petersburg Schools and went on to help his family farm. James met Marian E. Recker the love of his life at a dance in Petersburg, IA. They were married on May 11, 1957, in Dyersville. A few years later, they moved to Monti, IA, started farming together, and purchased a farm in rural Winthrop, IA in 1964. Together, they farmed for many years, semi-retired in 2000, and moved to an acreage in Masonville, IA.

Taking care of the farm was important to James. He was a hard worker and didn’t spare a minute most days. James taught his children how to work just as hard as he did, and they always remembered his lessons.
