He then was employed with the Medusa Cement Co. for 28 years until he retired in 1974. On Dec. 23, 1936, Harold married Viola L. Sorenson at Gjerpen Lutheran Church in the town of Cato. Viola preceded him in death on Oct. 17, 1983. Harold was a member of Immanuel Evangelical Lutheran Church.
Harold is survived by two daughters: Shirley (Roman) Gaedtke and Jenny (Gale) Windus, both of Manitowoc; nine grandchildren: Randy (Lori) Waniger, Rick Waniger, Brian Waniger, Lori (Andy) Brey, Mark (JoAnne) Gaedtke, Brenda (David) Behnke, Lance (Beth) Gaedtke, Jeff Windus, and Kim (Fritz) Emme; 16 great-grandchildren; one son-in-law: Charles Waniger, Manitowoc; one sister-in-law: Mildred Sorenson, Valders; also nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends surviving. Harold was preceded in death by his parents; his wife, Viola; one daughter, Lois Waniger; and one sister, Elvira Sonnenburg.
The family will greet relatives and friends on Tuesday, Dec. 11, 2007, at Immanuel Evangelical Lutheran Church, Manitowoc, from 10 a.m. until the beginning of the funeral service at 11 a.m. The Rev. Paul Schossow and the Rev. Nicholas Maglietto will officiate with burial to follow at Evergreen Cemetery. The Harrigan Parkside Funeral Home and Crematory, North 11th and St. Clair streets, Manitowoc, is assisting the family with funeral arrangements.
In lieu of flowers, the family would appreciate memorials to Immanuel Evangelical Lutheran Church in Manitowoc. The family would like to extend a special thank you to the staff of Harmony House West and St. Mary's Home at Felician Village for the care and compassion they provided to Harold.
