Obituary:
Clifford J. Arndt, 93, Menasha, passed away peacefully at his home with his loving family at his side. He was born on Feb. 21, 1917, in High Cliff, son of the late Herman and Ida (Fiedler) Arndt. Clifford was united in marriage to Margaret Birling, on Sept. 7, 1940, and she preceded him in death in 1974.
Cliff served his country in the U.S. Army. Cliff was a member of the Civilized Conservation Corp. (CC's) from 1935-36. Upon his retirement in 1980, Cliff had worked for many years at Central Paper. He enjoyed woodworking, especially building birdhouses. Cliff loved the outdoors and was a fisherman, hunter and a gardener. He also liked playing a few hands of Sheepshead and cribbage.
Sports were another favorite pastime, watching his favorite teams like the Cubs, Brewers, and the Packers in that order. Cliff was a family man and tried to spend as much time as possible with his grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
Cliff will be missed by his loving family, including his son, David (Marilyn); son-in-law, Dean Planert; four grandchildren, Dan (Leah) Planert, Chad (Stacey) Arndt, Wendy (Matt) Blansette, Melissa (special friend, Jason) Hildebrand; six great-grandchildren, Patrick, Ashley, Rheanna, Austin, Sam, Jordan; one sister, Delores Giebel; numerous nieces, nephews, other relatives, neighbors and friends.
He was also preceded in death by two daughters, Rita and Ruth; one sister and three brothers.
A Prayer Service will be held at 7 p.m. Tuesday, May 18, 2010, at Martens-Laemmrich Funeral Home, 312 Milwaukee Street, Menasha. Visitation will be held from 4 p.m. until the time of service at the funeral home. Interment will take place in St. Mary Cemetery, Town of Menasha.
In lieu of flowers, a memorial will be established.
The family would like to extend a special thank you to Dan and Leah for living and caring for Grandpa for the past ten months. Your love and kindness will always be remembered.
