I am honored that the family clans can have a common website to share information about history through my mom, Lucilla. I have decided to make the website permanent so we can remain in touch! I will be posting photos and memories with my daughters and planning reunions! Love, Dena Walter

I am one of Helmuth Holle's daughters (he was a half-brother to your grandmother). I remember hearing about you and your sister when we were all very young and seeing pictures of you. We met your Uncle Everett once when he visited us in Kansas. My sisters, Linda and Mary, and I live in Northern Virginia outside of Washington, DC. Our youngest syster, Janet, lives in Wichita. Our brother, Daryl, still lives in the house we grew up in in Nebraska. I extend my sincere sympathy to you and your family. I don't get back for family reunions very often, but it would be fun to see everyone again sometime.

sincerely,
Kaylene Holle Green, Reedville, VA

On behalf of the Orville Holle Family I want to send you our sympthy. Your grandmother and my dad were siblings. My dad was the youngest of the Holle clan. Your mom and I were cousins. Altlhough, she was one of the older ones, since she never lived near Bremen growing up I never really got to know her. We would so love if you would want to come back for a Holle reunion. My name is Pat Holle Novak. God Bless you all

I met Cil at the end of her life. She was a wonderful lady top line. She really loved her family and always worried about them. All of us at Casas Adobe Assisted Living in Tucson just loved her dearly and just so honored that your family shared her with us. Cil leaves us with so many happy and loving memories. You will be very missed. But I know you are at peace and in a wonderful place. Until we meet again you will always have a place in my heart...... Love always and forever...... May God be you and your family forever........... Jennifer aka Frenchie

It's always sad and yet joyful to remember someone who was in school at the same time. There are fond memories of Lucilla being in High School especially. I don't ever remember her not being a bundle of joy and having a good time. She was always with the pep club at all the games, having fun. Pleasant memories. Les Walter
