William Mensing Memoriam

WILLIAM (BILL) MENSING AUG 29, 1904 - JUN 26, 1984 79 YEARS, 10 MONTHS ELSIE MARIE MENSING JUL 2, 1913 - MAY 15, 2010 96 YEARS, 10 MONTHS It is with love & appreciation that we reflect on the well lived lives of our parents. Though trials came and went, they believed in cherishing family, nurturing long-lasting friendships, working hard, and always remaining positive and productive. Our parents always cherished their German roots, but loved the hope and promise America offered. Eventually though, we saw each of them growing tired and unable to persevere. A generation completed one year ago, it's now our charge to carry on what we've learned. It gives us peace, knowing our parents are at last together again. We cherish our memories and will forever have them in our hearts.Bill Mensing, Carolyn Kerl and their Loving Families www.modbee.com/obituaries
