  Edward Nicholas Mirsberger passed away on Thursday, October 18, 2012. He was born on September 19, 1921 in St. John, town of Woodville, son of the late Joseph and Mary (Kees) Mirsberger. He graduated from St. John the Baptist Catholic School. In 1946, he married Marion Giesen at St. Mary Catholic Church in Hilbert. Ed and Marion celebrated 63 years of marriage before Marion preceded Ed in death on June 9, 2009. Ed and Marion operated a dairy farm; Ed served as an officer in the Holstein Breeder's Association and the Calumet County Dairy Herd Improvement Association. After farming, Ed worked as a substitute mail carrier, a machinist with Tecumsch, and retired after serving 15 years as the head custodian for the Hilbert Public Schools. Ed served the Town of Woodville as an elected supervisor and a member of its land planning commission. After Ed's retirement, he and Marion volunteered with Meals on Wheels, the Salvatorian Center, St. Joe's Pantry, and Habitat for Humanity. Ed and Marion belonged to St. John the Baptist parish and later the consolidated St. John Sacred Heart parish where Ed served on the school board during the consolidation process. Ed enjoyed teaching youth religion classes, serving as a Eucharistic minister and lectern, and singing with the choir. Ed and Marion cared for the church facilities for many years; they enjoyed decorating the church and opening the doors for masses and weddings. Selecting, delivering, and setting up the Christmas trees was Ed's favorite project for many years. Ed belonged to the Tri-Parish Council Knights of Columbus and served as Grand Knight.
