Friends may call at the Harrigan Parkside Funeral Home, Manitowoc, from 5-8 p.m.
on Thursday (TONIGHT), and from noon until the time of service at 1:30 pm. on

Dad enjoyed spending time working with his tools, reading, and bicycling, and had
a great love of the outdoors and the northwoods. He was very proud of having served
his country in the Navy during the war. Dad took good care of his family and had
a special place in his heart for Emma, his "little gal".
A heartfelt thank you to Connie and Faye at Shady Lane, and Dr. Theobald and Amy
Schleunes at the Manitowoc Clinic. Your compassionate care of dad made all the
difference.
