Nickel, Larry A. (9 May 1958 – 22 August 2018)
Larry grew up on the family farm in Chili, WI where he spent his childhood with
his siblings. It’s the place where at 5 years old he learned to make his famous
pickles. He was a busy boy who shared many mischievous adventures with his
siblings. He graduated Granton High School in 1977.
Larry started as a Laborer in Masonry for 9 years, and then followed his
father’s footsteps as a Mason until retirement. Larry loved what he did and was
very proud of his work.
Larry had many joys in life, among them cooking (including making those famous
pickles), fishing, hunting, camping, gardening, riding his Harley, watching
NASCAR, and cheering for the Packers, working, tinkering on anything, feeding
and watching his Orioles and Hummingbirds, family (feeling young with his
grandchildren), known and unknown friends, harassing people (only in good fun,
if he teased you that meant he liked you!). Larry met the love of his life, Lisa
Bryan, in 2002. They shared 16 wonderful years together; 2 as husband and wife.
He is survived by his loving wife Lisa Nickel, son Joshua Nickel (Brooke),
grandchildren Zayden Nickel and Izabella Nickel, daughter Christina Streeter
(Don) grandchildren Bree Streeter and Beau Streeter, stepson Adam Tilson,
stepson Zachery Tilson (Fabi), stepdaughter Chelsea Tilson, sister Debbie
Moeller (John), sister Susan Moede (Gale), brother Mark Nickel (Sara), brother
Dale Nickel (LaDonna), brother Dean Nickel (Susan), foster brother Donald Hafner
(Debbie), brother-in-law Dean Bryan (Stephanie), sister-in-law Lori Bixby
(Chris), sister-in-law Sara Errthum (Jason), sister-in-law Beth Bryan (Phil),
and many cousins, nephews, and nieces.
Larry entered eternal life welcomed by his father William Nickel, mother Sylvia
Nickel, aunt Mary Ann (Krainz), uncle Donald Nickel, father-in-law Dean Bryan
and mother-in-law Gail Bryan.
