Lane Paul Portteus, 72, of Sandusky, passed away on Wednesday morning, January 10, 2018 in Stein Hospice Care Center after a prolonged illness.

He was born on July 4, 1945 in New York City to the late Paul H. and Elnora (Manthei) Portteus.

He graduated from Kent State University High School in 1963. He served in the U.S. Navy in the submarine service. A talented artist, he was especially proud of the canes he made and gave to people, especially the many veterans. He was a career salesman.

Lane is survived by his daughter, Jeanne (Eric) Scott; granddaughters, Maddison and Stella; former wife, Ann; sister, Carrie-Jo (John) Thomas and family; brother, Andre (Cynthia) Portteus and family; and life-long friend, Dick England. Lane was cremated, per his wishes. A memorial service will be held at a later date.
