Thomas Edward Meisler

Thomas Edward Meisler, 86, Castalia, passed away peacefully at his daughter's home, surrounded by family, on Sunday, April 30, 2023.

He was born on May 23, 1936 in Sandusky to the late Carl and Edna (Toft) Meisler.

Tom was a third generation member of the current fifth-generation Toft Dairy family. As a child Tom would ride alongside his brothers, to help them run the daily milk routes. Over 66 plus years of employment Tom "Pappy" wore many hats of milkman, salesman, Vice-President and tour guide. He took pride with his family overseeing the expansion of the business, from a home delivery service to a modern retail facility it has become today. Tom was called the master ice cream maker. Working and fishing were two things Tom loved to do, also taking care of his dog Precious.

He is survived by his children, Dennis (Maureen) Meisler, Castalia, and Brenda Meisler, Sandusky; grandchildren, Jeramie (Holly) Meisler, Jamie (Tia) Meisler, Joshua (Crystal) Meisler, Jody (Jay) Meisler-McKillips, Kayla (Myles) Stierhoff, Danielle Meisler, and Jenna Meisler; great-grandchildren, Hailee Meisler, Brennan Meisler, Aidan Meisler, Addisyn Meisler, Landon Meisler, Brantley Meisler, Blake Meisler, Jase McKillips, Jolie McKillips, Hudson Stierhoff, and Harper Steirhoff; numerous nieces and nephews; special care giver, Debra Wikel.

He was preceded in death by his wife of 62 years, Colleen Carol (Criswell) Meisler in 2016; parents; and brothers, Donald Meisler, Robert Meisler, Russell Meisler and Eugene Meisler.
