Maurice "Maurie" Conrad

January 5, 1938 — November 26, 2020

Maurice “Maurie” Conrad, age 82, passed away at Mayo Clinic in Bloomer on Thursday, November 26, 2020. He was born on January 5, 1938 at his grandmother’s home in the Dutch Flats of Bloomer to Jesse and Mavis (Raatz) Conrad. He married Joyce Kelm, December 5, 1959 at St. John’s in Cornell. Maurie was the owner operator of Coon’s Pump in Bloomer for many years working as a well driller, welder, machinist and gravedigger for over 15 local cemeteries. Maurie enjoyed a cold beer and was a huge NASCAR and stock car racing fan. He had his own plane that he loved to tour around the countryside. He was an avid hunter and enjoyed making maple syrup, cutting wood and was always excited about getting a new pickup truck in any color, as long as it was black. Maurie loved sharing stories with his family and his friends and had a way with words, “re-writing” the dictionary to fit the story and did we mention, having a cold beer!
