Russell E. Dressler Sr., 72, of Bloomington, and formerly of Lancaster, died on Sunday evening Jan. 8, at his residence in Bloomington. 

 

Russell was born on Sept. 28, 1944, in Mt. Hope, the son of Leo and Isabelle (Gotzinger) Dressler. He married Sarah “Sally” Giesen on Nov. 12, 1977, at the Little Brown Church in Nashua, Iowa.

Russell was preceded in death by his parents; son Russell Jr.; grandson Tyler Dressler; sister Katherine Wilkinson; and brothers, John, Eugene, Richard and Jerry Dressler.
