Herman Marcus Wittsack was born in Cologne, Minnesota on April 6, 1933, to the late Herman and Catherine (Pfleghaar) Wittsack. He graduated from Central Senior High School in Norwood Young America in 1951. After his schooling, he proudly served in the Army during the Korean War. After his discharge, he embarked on a career in service to the US government. On December 28, 1957, he married Mary Dockweiler in Winona, Minnesota. His career offered him the opportunity to be assigned in both Germany and Hawaii, but the bulk was spent in the Washington DC area. He retired in 1984. In 1996, he and his wife returned to Minnesota and settled in Annandale. In retirement, they went on multiple cruises all around the world. He enjoyed playing bridge, fishing, cheering for his Minnesota sports teams and spending time with friends and family.
