James E. Bruss, 71

Jim was born on September 21, 1944 to the late Elmer and Mary Ann (Biscobing) Bruss in Milwaukee. Jim formerly lived in Hartford, Wisconsin and graduated from Rufus King High School of Milwaukee. He then went on to attend Milwaukee Technical College. On December 13, 1992, Jim married Linda (Tveten) Liederbach at Faith United Church of Christ in Antigo. He worked in the construction business on roads and buildings and later owned Pine Point Resort on Pickerel Lake. Jim enjoyed hunting, fishing, and boating, but his greatest treasure was spending time with family and friends. He was also an avid Packer fan.
