Conrad Eugene Hassel, 70, Winger, MN, died on Sunday, July 22, 2012, at the First Care Medical Center in Fosston, MN. He was born on February 22, 1942, to Sigvard and Selma (Prestegord) Hassel in Fertile, MN. Conrad graduated from Fertile-Beltrami High School in 1960. Eleven years later he was united in marriage to Donna Pulver in Winger.

Conrad enjoyed working with his father and brothers, Bobby and Larry, in their family painting business for most of his life. When they were together there was always wit and humor. Conrad had a boisterous laugh that matched his off collar humor. Fitting his Norwegian heritage, Conrad was set in his ways, determined, and a hard worker. His pride and greatest joy was his grandchildren.
