He was born in Pforzheim Germany, on November 8, 1920, to the late Carl R. and Sophie (Beutel) Geisel. He immigrated to the United States at age seven and lived in Windsor for almost 75 years. Mr. Geisel was a decorated U.S. Army veteran of World War II. He was a mechanical engineer by trade and was last employed by PA Industries of Bloomfield.
