Harry DeForest Cundy, Jr.
Harry DeForest Cundy, Jr. of Pigeon Forge, TN and formerly of Kewaskum, passed away on July 29, 2022. He was born March 2, 1928, to the late Harry DeForest Cundy, Sr and Geneva (Moon) in Oshkosh. On September 13, 1952, he was united in marriage to Belva Roycraft in St. Mary’s Catholic Church, Omro.
Harry grew up in Oshkosh until his wife and family moved to Kewaskum in 1958. Later, in 2003, he moved to Sevierville, TN to be close to his daughter, Christine Cundy.
Harry served in the Army during WWII from April 1946-October 1947. He worked at Kiekhaefer Mercury until his move to Kewaskum, where he worked at Regal Ware, Inc. for 29 years and was a member of the Regal Ware 25 Year Club.
Harry was active in his church, Holy Trinity Catholic Church in Kewaskum and Holy Cross Catholic Church in Pigeon Forge. He was a Boy Scout Explorer leader from 1967-1971 for Boy Scout Troop #744. He also ran the football chains for Kewaskum High School games for about 15 years.
Harry and his wife, Belva, loved traveling, playing bingo, cruising, camping, casinos, fishing, playing cards and games. But most of all, he loved being involved with his children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. When he moved to Sevierville, he was an active member and volunteer with the Sevierville Senior Center until 2021. He also was part of the volunteer SOS senior outreach program, which made inhome visits to the homebound elderly or disabled in Sevier County, enhancing their quality of life in many ways.
Harry was extremely loved by all and was an incredible husband, dad, grandpa, great-grandpa, and great-great-grandpa. We will miss his warm hugs and kisses, green eyes, witty humor, his singing and loving ways.
