Norma Liesch

Norma (Leiskau) Liesch passed into Gods loving arms Sunday, May 17th, 2020.
She was born on August 5, 1922 in the Town of Almon in Shawano Co. to proud, hard-working parents, Albert and Emma Leiskau.

Norma married her soulmate Herfert Roland Liesch in 1942. He was the love of her life and he held her heart in his hands and their souls danced together as one.
They lived a very happy life on a farm in the Town of Morris where they raised 3 beautiful children; Janet, Roger and Judy. Their love was further extended as they opened their home to a few foster children.

They retired from farming in 1965 and moved to Shawano where they lived until Herfert’s passing in 1978. In 1981, Norma then moved to Black Creek where she resided until needing extra care at Brewster Village in Appleton.

Norma’s hobbies included gardening, reading, watching movies, camping and babysitting for the grandchildren/great-grandchildren. Norma was known as “Little Grandma” by her Great-Grandchildren.
