7234 Garth Merwyn Bestor, 79, of Harmony, passed away Wednesday, Oct. 22, 2014, at Gunderson Lutheran Hospital in La Crosse, Wisconsin.

He was born to Verl and Gertrude "Gertie" (Hovey) Bestor in Granger on Nov. 13, 1934. He spent his entire life living in the Harmony/Granger area with the exception of his time spent as an aircraft electrician in the United States Air Force from 1954 to 1961. He spent a good deal of his service stationed in Japan. After his service, he worked as a plumber for Broadwater Plumbing and Heating in Harmony, before taking over the business in 1985 and running it as Bestor Plumbing and Heating until he sold it upon his retirement. He married Shirley "Sally" (Sandvik) Engle of Harmony in 1961 and became a loving stepfather to Terry Engle of Harmony, DebRae Sandvik (Engle) of Granger, and Douglas (Mary Jo) Engle of rural Cresco, Iowa. Together with Sally, they had three more children, Ty (Dacia) Bestor of Harmony, Tonya Bestor of McHenry, Ill., and Chad (Jill) Bestor of Kenai, Alaska.

Living in his country home six miles west of Harmony, Garth enjoyed spending his time doing anything outside: hunting, going to the boundary waters to fish in the summer, and, in his later years, playing with his two dogs, Buddy and Sam. He could also be found playing cards with the guys at the Co-op in Granger on a regular basis.
