Obituary:
Dunsirn , Robert John, Appleton, Age 84, died Saturday, September 11, 2004, at Brewster Village. Bob was born in Appleton on September 10, 1920, the son of the late Henry and Clara (Roehl) Dunsirn. He served his country in WWII in the United States Army Infantry (1940-1946). Bob was held as a prisoner of war, receiving the Purple Heart twice. He was with Atlas Tag and Label Company from 1946-1967. Bob was the founder, along with his partner Don W. Buchta, of Mid America Tag and Label Company, ultimately employing more than 200 people in the Fox Valley. The company was later acquired by the Menasha Corporation. He was also a board member of Dunsirn Industries from 1994 until his retirement in 2000. Bob's entire focus in life was to be a good provider to his family, a goal at which he excelled.

Robert married Kutz, Agnes [Group Sheet]

Other Events:

• Military Service: WWII, US Marines

Notes:

He enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps. He was first reported as injured; and later reported as killed in action on 31 July 1944 in the South Pacific. He was officially interred on 14 JUL 1946 at St. Snelling National Cemetery, South Minneapolis, MN., in Section C, Site 14357. After the death of his mother, Clara Roehl, his father had 5 children who were motherless. Henry John Dunsirn then married Lydia Dorman, nee Meyer. (Meier). She had been divorced from her husband, Herbert H. Dorman. She is listed in the 1930 U.S. Census for Henry, listed as a housekeeper, along with her children from her first marriage, Clifford Dorman, Annabelle Dorman, and another.

After the death of Clara, Louis and his older brother had it tough. They were pawned off to various relatives to live. Clara's parents would not even help out. All of Henry's concentration was on raising Lydia's children. Lydia Meyer Dorman Dunsirn divorced Henry on grounds of cruel and inhuman treatment. Whether they ever married again is unknown, but they then continued to live together. From this union, one daughter, Faith was born. On her birth record her father is listed as Henry Dunsirn and her mother is listed as Lydia Dorman. You figure it out!!!!!!!!!!

Lydia then went onto marry two more times. In all, she was married 4 times. She was the mother of 3 Dorman children, and the mother of Faith Dunsirn.

This was a big item which bothered Robert Dunsirn, son of Henry - basically being abandoned. Robert Dunsirn authored a private book, "I Dunno," which his sons had published for personal use. He describes in detail in that book his hardships as a youth.

P.S. After Robert Dunsirn divorced Agnes Kutz, he married Carol Ann Utschig. I do not know what her married name was or her children. She is still living.
Robert Dunsirn ended up a millionaire plus when he died. He originally started the "Atlas Tag Company" in Appleton, WI. That business was sold and/or acquired by a big label company, where Robert made his millions.
