| Notes |
- Harold Peter Bissing, 93, went to greener pastures on Wednesday, October 1, 2014; just three days short of what would have been his 65th wedding anniversary. He was born on March 12, 1921 to the late Raymond and Theresa (Bosch) Bissing on the family farm. He joined the military in 1943 and served until March of 1946, during World War II as a Military Policeman. As a Corporal, Harold guarded military prisoners and served as guard on trains. He did town patrol and interior guard duty, assisted in the enforcement of military laws and regulations, and the maintenance of order and control of traffic. He assisted civilian police in securing compliance with civil laws by military personnel. The majority of his army life he guarded prisoners engaged in work details, and accompanied prisoners transported to distant camps.
Upon returning home, he met Dorothy Locy and they married October 4, 1949, in Appleton. Harold worked over 40 years at various trucking companies including Kroger, Krambo, Concrete Pipe and Hennes. He enjoyed his many years of truck driving. He was given the blessing of opportunity to travel all over the United States and overseas during his life time. Traveling was his dream and he and Dorothy definitely accomplished it.
He is survived by three daughters; Peg (James) Steffen, Barb Bissing, and Deb (Ronald) Ivacic and five grandsons; Daniel, Ryan (Jodi), Jeremiah, Phillip and Matthew. He is further survived by his sisters and brothers in law; Delores Bissing, Lois Bissing, Wayne (Pat) Locy, Jim (Betty) Locy, Gerald (Mary Ellen) Locy, Tom (Deb) Locy, Mary Gloudemans and Alice (Bob) Weyers as well as many nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends.
He is preceded in death by his parents, wife Dorothy, mother and father in law, Henry and Geraldine Locy, brothers Raymond, Leo and Floyd Bissing, brothers in law; Dave, Don and John Locy, Roger Gloudemans, Gene Driessen and sisters in law; Delores Driessen, Florence, Yvonne and Ruth Locy.
Honoring Harold's wishes, a private funeral service will be held.
