Our sincere sympathy to the Stemper children, you will be in our thoughts during this stressful time. We still talk about your Dad, especially when we go to Peru and drive down the "avenue". Your folks were such good, good people.

Just a note to express my sympathy to the family. I know how difficult Elsie's prolonged illness was on her, as well as her family members. I hope she has now found everlasting peace in rejoining her beloved husband.

Aunt Elsie - you will be missed dearly. Our families had so much fun growing up and coming to Peru for the holidays. You and Uncle Jerry always let up play at the University's gym and what a treat it was. You always had a smile on your face and welcomed us. You led by example and it left an impression on my life. Thanks for being a great Aunt. Enjoy Heaven!!!
