Harold Theodore Trebesch, the son of Theodore and Lena (Alt) Trebesch, was born on July 27, 1931, in Sleepy Eye, Minnesota. He was baptized on August 23, 1931, and was confirmed on April 25, 1948, with his confirmation verse being Heb. 10:23. Harold attended school and graduated from Sleepy Eye High School. He served his country in the United States Army and was honorably discharged in 1954.
Harold met the love of his life, Mary Ann Geske, and the two were united in marriage on November 26, 1961, at Bethany Lutheran Church in Wabasso. They were blessed with their daughter Tammy.
During his working years, Harold did construction on grain elevators, farmed, and worked as a mechanic at Del Monte. He spent his weekends with family camping and could often be found tinkering in his shop. Woodworking, deer hunting, and fishing kept him busy as well and during the winter, he was known to race cars on the ice. Working in his garden, and canning the fruits of his labor, brought Harold much joy. His greatest love in life was spending time with his grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
