Marcella Fiedler

Marcella Emma Fiedler, age 104, previously of Prescott, WI, joined her heavenly father on December 21, 2020, in Grantsburg, WI. She was born March 15, 1916, in Oak Grove, WI, the daughter of John and Frieda (Belter) Meier. On June 18, 1936, she was united in marriage to Melvin Fiedler to which this union two sons were born, Gerald and Roger.

Marcella was a life-long member of St. John’s United Church of Christ in Prescott, WI. It was there she was baptized, confirmed, married and faithfully attended. Upon retirement in 1975, Marcella and her husband Melvin lived on a small parcel of the Fiedler family farm. After Melvin passed in 1984, Marcella continued to reside on the Fiedler farm.

Marcella was born and raised on a farm; she was no stranger to hard work and helping others. She worked alongside Melvin tending to the farm while raising two sons into fine men. Marcella will be fondly remembered for her willingness to help everyone, and her ability to remember just about anything. Marcella’s caring nature and timeless charisma will be memorialized by all.
