Donald H. Schomberg, 79, of Sheboygan Falls, passed away peacefully on Thursday, August 19, 2021, at
Holy Family Memorial Medical Center in Manitowoc.
Donald was born on September 26, 1941, to Norbert and Olinda (Prange) Schomberg. He graduated
from Sheboygan Falls High School. After high school, Donald started to learn the masonry trade. In 1975,
Donald started Don Schomberg Construction, later known as Don Schomberg & Sons, and retired in
2003 after 28 years in the business.
Donald was united in marriage to Sharon Thone on April 23, 1960. Together they raised two sons, Brian
and Kevin. Sharon passed away in 2002.
Donald was an avid hunter – spending most of his time deer hunting and took occasional elk hunting
trips. In his later years, Donald became interested in planting and maintaining the trees and flowers on
his property. He was an excellent woodcarver and had crafted nearly 200 wooden birds.
Donald is survived by his sons, Brian Schomberg and Kevin Schomberg; granddaughter, Tiffany (Craig)
Wendt; great-grandson, Jack Wendt; brothers, Jim Schomberg, Larry (Karen) Schomberg, and Gary
Schomberg; his special friend’s daughter and grandson, Beth and Stewart Schmidt; and other relatives
and friends.
Donald was preceded in death by his loving wife of 42 years, Sharon; special friend, Dimple Adams;
parent; and sister-in-law, Theresa Schomberg.
A private family service will be held for Donald at St. Paul’s Evangelical Lutheran Church in Howards
Grove with Pastor Aaron Mueller officiating.
Donald will be buried next to his wife, Sharon, at St. Paul’s Cemetery.
