Dolores, Jack & family:
Dolores I loved hearing your laughter and gentle, simple approach to living. Your love for Jack and your family was spoken clearly in all your conversations.
My family connection to the Klinkhammers' is thru your G-grandfather Gerhard Klinkhammer's (1803-1861) child Anna Marie Klinkhammer Lenz (a sister to Peter Klinkhammer). I really enjoyed your stories and tales of the good-ol' days. Your stories about your uncle Rev. Msgr. William Klinkhammer and your telling about Adrian, Rochester, Mayo Clinic's history and with your strong connection to your faith. Peace be with you and your family during this time.
Jack and family ~
Sorry to hear about your Mother~sending thoughts and prayers your way.
Dawn and Big Mike
