Darold A. Block, age 88, of Winona, passed away on Friday, January 7, 2022, at Sauer Health Care.
Darold was born on May 14, 1933, in Winona, to Arthur and Stella (Erdmann) Block. He was united in marriage with Leona M. Eide on February 5, 1966, at Rushford Lutheran Church in Rushford, MN, and she preceded him in death on August 22, 2016.
