Harold passed away peacefully in the early morning of March 15. He is no longer in pain or suffering.

Harold worked hard his whole life and was proud of his concrete work and his business, Schade's Concrete Specialists. He enjoyed the outdoors, hunting and fishing, making venison sausage and tapping trees for maple syrup and later in life spending time with his beloved dogs, Molly and Angel.

After retirement, Harold made his cabin in Land O' Lakes his permanent home; looking forward to living out his days in the great Northwoods doing the things he enjoyed best.

During the last years of his life Harold enjoyed when his grandchildren came up to visit, chatting with his neighbors and visiting especially with Carson, a young neighborhood friend. He looked forward to his daily check ins and visits with his son in law, Randy and backing up all his opinions and decisions with his favorite phase, "I'm a stubborn old German, I do what I want" with anyone who wanted to chat.

Harold was survived in death by his wife, Elaine and their children; Cheryl (Randy) Haroldson, James Schade, and Tina Baxter. His grandchildren: Dawn Bielen, Lisa Le Sieur, Luke le Sieur, Kyle Le Sieur, Kristen Waldrop, Jennifer (Arick) Aarthun, Lauren Nowak, Brittney (Tommy) Schade, Dustin (Victoria) Schade, Heather Schade, Adam (Ariana) Baxter, Hannah (Wayne) Hughes, Andrew Baxter, Hope Baxter, Joseph Baxter and Josiah Baxter. and numerous great grandchildren.

Harold was preceded in death by children, Paulette Le Sieur, Gregory Schade, and Cindy Waldrop. He was also preceded in death by beloved grandchildren; Kelsey Le Sieur and Douglas Bielen and special great grandson Cale Schade as well as his loving dogs, Molly and Angel.

He will be greatly missed by the loved ones left behind although we know he is finally at peace and reunited with his beloved dogs and favorite fishing and hunting buddies.
