All of that continues with a special Heaven-Earth connection now. Thinking of you and all of your loved ones..wishing you peace and comfort, ~ Janet Ramler
Dear Cathy and family. I am sending my heartfelt sympathy from Florida. I wish I could extend my sympathy to you in person. Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers.
Dear Cathy and family
I am so sorry for the loss of your Mom. She had been on my mind a lot recently as I was sending out Christmas Cards.
My mother, Dolores Scherer Trettel, lived in Cold Spring and we connected many times with Darol and Ellie over the Theisen Family Tree as Genrose Theisen and Elizabeth Lahr Scherer were first cousins.
We enjoyed many hours pouring over old pictures, trying to dig deeper into information, visiting the St. Joseph Historical Building, where your Mom and Dad spent many hours cataloging all the items that donated and arranging displays.
They always had a smile and sometimes a certain twinkle in their eyes when we met.
I won’t be able to attend as I am scheduled for Surgery Dec 31, and will be hospitalized yet for the funeral service.
Please know your Mom and Dad are in my thoughts and prayers and if possible can you send a memory card.
I will make a donation to the VFW or
