May 12, 1932 — May 31, 2010
Harvey Prahl, 78, of Wausau, passed away Monday, May 31, 2010.
Harvey was born May 12, 1932 to the late Paul and Esther (Poeske) Prahl.
He married Rose Strehlow on July 28, 1951 in the town of Easton. Rose preceded him in death on September 26, 1986 after 35 years of marriage.
Survivors include two sons; Dale Prahl and Don (Penny) Prahl both of Wausau, six daughters; Jacalyn (Cliff) Lashua of Wausau, Bonnie (Russell) Mathie of Wausau, Dawn (Rodney) Schroeder of Antigo, Ronda McClinton of Wausau, Sheri (Jim) Krueger of Wausau, and Mary Sherman of Ramona, Calif., 24 grandchildren , 8 great grandchildren, one brother Norman (Adeline) Prahl of Wausau, two sisters; Dorothy Kunze and Darlene (Earl) Ramthum both of Wausau, and his special friend Diane Graham.
To comply with the wishes of our father Harvey, a private funeral service was held. We know he had trusted his Lord and Savior and is now at peace in his heavenly home. We (the family) would appreciate your prayers for strength during this difficult time. Please take a moment today to remember Harvey in your own special way. You might remember him as a “brother or brother-in-law” during some fun family event. As “Uncle Harv” and enjoying times of hunting with him. He might have been your “neighbor” who was willing to help you out. You might remember him as a “friend” that you had a good-time with and got to enjoy one of his jokes, one-liners or witty come backs. Maybe as the “farmer” that you shared field work with or butchering. You might remember him as the “milk hauler” who visited your farm daily and if you were a small child on that farm ~ his friendly wave or smile (or maybe even the “hard time” you might have gotten from him!) We all share some wonderful memories of him. He loved life and worked hard all through it. He will be greatly missed.
A special “Thank-you” to Deb, Peg and all the other wonderful people at Ministry Home Care Hospice Services.
