Bruce Wm. Wolberg, 63, of Appleton died Tuesday, February 3, 2015 after a lingering illness.
He was born August 7, 1951 to Norman and Eleanor Wolberg of Seymour. Bruce was baptized and confirmed at Zion Evangelical United Brethren Church, Seymour, and attended local schools. As a young man he began to work for Appleton Papers. He retired from there after 43 years, having advanced to machine operator and then become a journeyman machinist for the company.
Bruce had many interests through the years, some of which included growing tea roses and orchard fruits, camping with friends, fly tying, woodturning, and reading. He had a wealth of practical knowledge and also had a little mischief in him under his quiet exterior.
Bruce is survived by his sister, Faith Wolberg, Iola; aunts, Margaret Wolberg, Scandinavia, and Elda Greb, Hillsboro, Oregon; special friends, Leroy Holz and Randy Butters, many cousins and friends.
He was preceded in death by his parents and by his sister Ruth Wolberg.
