Body

Harry Limmer, 84, of Perrysburg, passed away Tuesday, December 28, 2021, at St. Luke’s Hospital. Harry was born March 8, 1937, in Toledo, Ohio, to Howard and Ellen (Swartz) Limmer. He married Jacqueline Handley on November 26, 1955, and they shared 66 amazing years together.

Harry worked as a supervisor for American Cyanamid in Perrysburg for 34 years. He was an avid member of Bethlehem Lutheran Church, where he mowed the lawn and helped with Operation Christmas every year; he even remodeled all of the pews to have an extra hymnal book.

Harry was a jack-of-all-trades. There wasn’t anything he couldn’t make or fix. He had a passion for woodworking. This past winter he made bird feeders and birdhouses for each of his grandchildren. He also enjoyed his Fourth of July parties and his weekend trips with his wife.

Harry was not only a role model for his family, but he also cared to teach others about how to complete projects for themselves. He was always finding problems to solve, even with his Tim Horton’s group. Harry will be missed by all who knew and loved him. ∏

He is survived by his wife, Jacqueline; children, Cheryl (Thomas) DeVanna, Randy (Susan) Limmer and Wendy (David) McGee; grandchildren, Ryan (Angela) DeVanna, Kristen (Tony) Fussell, Courtney (Erick) Koumoutzis, Ben Limmer, Mercedes (Andrew) Over and Makayla (Mitchell) Stewart; great-grandchildren, Mia, Allie, Carli, Nathan, Allison, Kyan, Nora, Jeffrey, Alexis, Rosalie and Declan, along with his brother, William Limmer and many nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents and sister-in-law, Ruth Limmer.

Friends and family were received Monday, January 3, from 2 to 8 p.m., at Witzler-Shank-Walker Funeral Home, 222 East South Boundary Street, Perrysburg (419-874-3133). Visitation continued Tuesday, January 4, from 10 to 11 a.m., at Bethlehem Lutheran Church, 106 West Plumer Street, Toledo, with services at 11 a.m., with Pastor Jaci Tiell officiating. Burial followed in Fort Meigs Union Cemetery.
