Bruce E. Blood

Bruce E. Blood, 74, of Oshkosh, passed away peacefully on November 8, 2026, at Park View Health Center. Born on July 31, 1952, he was the beloved son of Frank and Ellen (Lehnigk) Blood, who have preceded him in death.

Bruce was a gentle soul with an incredible love for his family and friends. His father was not just a parent but also his best friend. Bruce also cherished his brothers and sisters in Christ, proudly belonging to His Church. A true patriot, he had a deep appreciation for U.S. history and spent many hours reading about the past, always eager to learn more.

He will be greatly missed by his adopted family, including Ed and Terry Demler, Jim Demler, and Bob Demler, along with cousins—James (Sandy) Blood, Linda (Gene) Elbe, Paul (Kathy) Landig, and Elizabeth Landig.

A celebration of life for Bruce will be held at 5:00 PM on Tuesday, November 17, 2026 at Konrad-Behlman Funeral Home-Eastside, 402 Waugoo Ave, officiated by Rev. Ed Demler. A time of Visitation will be held at the funeral home from 4:00 PM until the time of the service. Private interment will take place at Riverside Cemetery.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you consider making a donation in Bruce's name to the Wounded Warrior Project, a cause he supported passionately.
