Memories and Condolences
for DOROTHY KUEHNERT

Not sure what to say?





Dear Cousins,

I haven't seen you in a long while, but wanted to write that I have wonderful memories of my Aunt Dorothy. Family get-togethers on O'Day Road were always a happy time in my childhood. Your mom's welcoming ways, warm smile, and gentleness were her hallmarks. I always appreciated her touches to the family farm house I grew up in as well. I knew she had to be a hard worker due to all of the projects she took on at 9356 Leo Road.

Our sympathies and God's Peace,
Becky & Bob Demaree
