Obituary for Lonnie P. Simon
Lonnie Paul Simon, age 79, 7 months, was born June 22, 1940 and passed away peacefully Wednesday, January 22, 2020 at the home of his brother, Orlando after a lengthy battle with Alzheimer’s.
Lonnie was born in the Grantsburg, Crex Meadows area until adulthood when the family relocated to Luck, WI after selling the home farm to the conservation. He spent his youth helping with the family farm and attending school in Grantsburg where he graduated from high school. He took a two-year course in mechanical drafting and later worked for McNally’s. He then worked as a carpenter for his brother, Orlando nearly 50 years. He worked at Walmart for several years and enjoyed meeting the many customers he helped.
Lonnie’s highest accomplishment is of the great care he took of his mother, Elizabeth, who lived to the grand old age of 103 and a half.
Lonnie is preceded in death by his parents, James and Elizabeth Simon; brothers, Milo, Bud, Jim, Donny, Jordan, David, Ernie, Elton; and sisters, Elvina and Charlotte.
He is survived by brothers, Frank (Athelen) and Orlando (JoAnn); sisters, Berdella Hall and Barb Nelson (Don); many nieces and nephews, great-nieces and nephews, and great-great-nieces and nephews; and many, many friends.
