Harry Dieltz obituary
Harry (Bucco) Dieltz, age 93, passed away peacefully on August 16, 2026, leaving behind a lifetime of memories and a legacy of love, hard work, family, and the love of the great outdoors.
Bucco, the second of three children, grew up in Somerset, Wisconsin and graduated from Somerset High School. Bucco, married to Kay (Heffron) for 67 years, spent most of their first 30 years together raising their kids in Somerset before moving to New Richmond in 1984.
Bucco was a devoted father of six children, Joe (Mary), Kathy Hogberg, Jean (Bernie) Wendt, Nancy (Tom) Denzer, Sherrie (John) Hosley, and Becky (Keith) Talledge. He spent many years working hard to provide for his family. His 40-year career at Andersen Corporation along with various bartending jobs in earlier years was a testament to the love he had for his family and the desire to give them a good life. The past 36 years Bucco has enjoyed a very long and happy retirement.
Bucco enjoyed sharing his enthusiasm for snowmobiling, boating, and fishing with family and friends. Bucco also had a love for cars and especially enjoyed driving his Corvette.
Bucco now joins his beloved wife, Kay, along with several family members and dear friends who went before him. We find comfort knowing that he is reunited with those he loved and the memories they shared will live on in the hearts of those left behind.
He will remain in the hearts of his six children, 16 grandchildren and 10 great grandchildren, his sister Donna, and several sisters-in-law.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Harry and Grace Dieltz, his brother Earl Wayne Dieltz and his grandson Cody Wendt.
He will be deeply missed, lovingly remembered, and forever cherished.
A funeral mass honoring him will be held on Tuesday, September 1, 2026, at 1 p.m. with a visitation prior from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Immaculate Conception Church in New Richmond, Wisconsin. The burial and a light meal will follow. Family and friends are invited to gather to celebrate Bucco’s life. Arrangements are with Bakken-Young Funeral & Cremation Services.
