Louis Lesselyoung, age 100, passed away on February 18, 2008, the same date on which his wife died in 2000. He died at his home, with his family at his side, after a long and wonderful life. Louis was born December 5, 1907, son of the late Leo and Susan (Arndt) Lesselyoung. He married the former Dorothy Harriman in Waupaca on September 18, 1929; she preceded him in death in February of 2000, after seventy years of marriage. His career began by being the local distributor of the Milwaukee Sentinel, and he finished his career in the Holstein cattle business.
Survivors include two children: Jean Konrad of Kaukauna and Roy “Bill” (Jody) Lesselyoung of Indianapolis, Indiana; eight grandchildren, eighteen great-grandchildren, and eleven great-great-grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his parents, a son Richard and a son-in-law Dean Konrad, and a granddaughter Barbara Konrad.
A private memorial service will be held at a later date, and Louis will be buried next to his wife at Riverside Cemetery in Appleton. A memorial fund is being established to benefit Affinity Hospice, 816 W. Winneconne Avenue, Neenah, WI 54956.
The family would like to thank everyone at Affinity Hospice for all of the special care and wonderful treatment they afforded to Louis and to the entire family. Your kindness will never be forgotten.
