Fleischmann, Harold F. (20 February 1939 – 2 December 2020)

Harold F. Fleischman, 81, of Loyal, passed away at Marshfield Medical Center on Wednesday, December 2, 2020.

Harold Frank Fleischman was born on February 20, 1939 in the Town of Richfield, rural Marshfield, to Frank H. and Veronica A. (Zinthefer) Fleischman. As a young boy, his family moved to Spencer, where he was raised and received his education, graduating from Spencer High School in 1957. After high school, Harold worked in Thorp, where he managed a grocery store. He was united in marriage to Marion H. Faucher on November 11, 1961 at Christ the King Catholic Church in Spencer. They resided in Spencer and Harold worked at Pathfinder Homes until its closing. They moved to Loyal and he worked at Greenwood Homes and Stratford Homes, both in Greenwood, until their closing. Harold then worked at the Loyal Cannery as a foreman, and then spent his last 20 working years as the custodian for St. Anthony Catholic Church. After retiring in 2001, he continued working part-time at his son, Pat's, business in Spencer (Bear Creek Canvas).

Harold had many interests, but especially loved spending time with his family and friends, hunting, and fishing. He was a member of St. Anthony Catholic Church and the Chequamegon Wildlife and Rec Club.
