Menne was born[1] and raised in Gardner, Massachusetts, where he was graduated from Gardner High School in 1960.[2] He attended college at the University of Miami in the early 1960s, and turned pro in 1965.[1] Menne had at least seven top-10 finishes in PGA Tour events during his career including a win at the 1974 Kemper Open, which was held at the Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, North Carolina.[3] He won that tournament in a playoff with Jerry Heard. Menne also finished in a first-place tie with Lee Trevino at the end of regulation at the 1970 National Airlines Open Invitational but lost on the second extra hole of a playoff. His best finish in a major was a T-30 at the 1970 PGA Championship.[4]

After reaching the age of 50, Menne played some on the Champions Tour but with limited success. His best finish in a Champions Tour event was T11 at Raley's Senior Gold Rush in 1992. He had more success playing on the European Seniors Tour.

Menne lived in West Palm Beach, Florida.[2][3] He had previously lived in Demarest, New Jersey.[5]

Menne died on June 2, 2023, at the age of 81.[6]
