VICTOR REIMER
Victor Christ Reimer was welcomed home after 94 years of faithful service on Earth. Vic passed away early Monday morning, June 22, 2009, at the Manitowoc Health & Rehabilitation Center.
Victor was born on Aug. 17, 1914, in Sheboygan to Hannah and Christ Reimer.
Early on, he worked for Charlie's Market in Sheboygan as a truck driver.
In May of 1942 Victor entered the army and served overseas for 2½ years seeing action in Africa and Italy. While home on furlough, Vic married Eunice Evenson on November 29, 1942. He immediately returned to service where he earned the rank of 1st Sergeant, a Bronze Star and the Soldier's Medal for heroism.
Vic served until November 1945. In 1946 he opened a garage and filling station at the corner of USH 151 and Liberty Street in Valders where he worked for 32 years, retiring in 1976.
Though retired, his work continued through his roles as husband, brother, uncle, great-uncle, great-great uncle and friend. Vic was always available for whatever was needed by his family and friends. Vic's other involvements over the years are many, among them: hunting and fishing, American Legion member for over 62 years, Valders Fire Department, Valders Village trustee, Valders Utility committee, Our Saviors Cemetery committee.
(Survivors omitted for privacy.)
Vic was preceded in death by his parents, wife Eunice, three sisters, one brother, brothers/sisters-in-law and niece: Carol Griffin Evenson.
The family will greet relatives and friends from 4 p.m. until the time of service at
6 p.m. on Thursday, June 25, 2009, at Faith Lutheran Church, Valders. Officiating at the service will be the Rev. Donald Staude. The Christianson & Deja Funeral Home and Cremation Care Center, Valders, is assisting the family with arrangements.
In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to: Faith Lutheran Church - Sound System Fund.
A special thank you to Dr. Herring and the staff at Manitowoc Health & Rehabilitation Center for their compassionate, loving care. You truly were Vic's extended family.
We will celebrate and embrace his memory; he "lived a good life."
