Our deepest sympathy to Lori, Dan, Grace, William, and the rest of the family. Your Dad was an amazing man. Every time we came back to Horicon and attended St. Stephen's we always had a great visit! We shared memories about when I still lived there. He always asked about our family back in Iowa and how the farming was going! He was such a caring man and will be greatly remembered. Death stings, but always know that he is rejoicing and perfectly singing with the angels in heaven! Again, our heartfelt sympathy to all of you!

Deepest Sympathy for our friend and HHS classmate, to his family, sister Marianne and brother Chuck, and all his children. So many memories of our younger years! Jerry was a good friend from high school on and how we loved to stop and visit, picking up the sweet corn end of summer. Rodger was a great friend to everyone. Blessings to all the family.
