Clair G. Rischmueller, age 90, of Middleton, WI passed away at Agrace Hospice on February 14, 2023.  He was born on October 19, 1932 to Oscar and Emma (Wawrock) Rischmueller and was raised on the family farm in the town of Honey Creek.  He served in the US Air Force from 1951 – 1954 as a mechanic stationed primarily in El Paso, TX.   Clair was united in marriage to Marilyn Biech in Baraboo, WI on July 21, 1956.  They made their home in Middleton, WI where they raised their son David.

Clair worked in construction with his brother for a few years and built his family's home in Middleton.  He then went into the landscaping business and owned and operated Four Lakes Landscaping in Middleton until going to work for The Bruce Company.  After landscaping, his passion for farming led him to raise beef cattle and crops at the Biech farm in Baraboo for quite a few years.  He was always a mechanic at heart and loved to fix and restore any type of equipment.  He enjoyed hunting white tail deer during the traditional 9 day rifle season in November.  Clair was a member of St. Lukes Lutheran Church in Middleton.
