He was born in Appleton on September 22, 1926 to the late Herman Sr. and Hulda (Plamann) Woldt and was the last remaining child of their family. Herman served in the U.S. Navy on the USS Topeka during World War II. He married Imelda "Micky" Miller on September 19, 1953. She preceded him in death on October 14, 2014 after 61 years of marriage.
