David Lawrence Seidl's Obituary
David L. Seidl, age 84, of Oshkosh, died peacefully on November 2, 2018, at his home.
He was born February 13, 1934, in Pizek, North Dakota, the son of Gertrude and Lawrence Seidl. David was a 1951 graduate of Oshkosh High and was a long time member of Saint Jude the Apostle Catholic Church (Saint Vincent). On May 1, 1954 he married Lois J. Roebke, his wife of 64 years.
