DUSTIN O'LEARY

Dustin J. "Dusty" O'Leary, age 22, of 3209 N. Cty. J., Reedsville, died early
Sunday morning, Jan. 29, 2012 as the result of a tragic automobile accident,
West of Collins in Manitowoc County.
Dustin was born Feb. 18, 1989 in Manitowoc, son of Tim and Cathy (Holst) O'Leary.
He attended St. Mary's Elementary School in Reedsville, Reedsville Public Middle
School, and graduated from Reedsville High School with the class of 2007. During
his high school years, Dusty got involved in the Manitwooc County Youth
Apprenticeship Program which enabled him to learn the job skills that made him a
very talented welder. He was immediately hired by Manitowoc Cranes after graduation
and continued to work there until his layoff in the fall of 2011. He was currently
employed as a welder at Miller's of St. Nazianz.
Dusty grew up in the outdoors which he loved. His joy was to ride along in the
trucks & tractors of his uncles farm, until he was old enough to go in the woods
with Dad, he became an avid hunter which he and his dad still shared together, along
with his brothers and many friends. He was a member of the Reedsville Sportsman's
Club; and continued his love of the farm by working for Hamp Haven Farms as they
needed him. He truly enjoyed his time in the tractors.
(Survivors omitted for privacy.)
He was preceded in death by granfathers, Michael Holst and Donald O'Leary; his
great grandparents; and an uncle, Roger "Herman" Sheehy.
Funeral services will be held at 10:30 a.m. on Friday, Feb. 3, 2012 at Holy Family
