Willis Gerald "Willie" Kluss

Sooo many memories, you could always depend on a laugh when you met him. I think Willie cleans the platter of the gang. I will miss seeing him when I come back to visit. I took Beth´s place at the bank and that was in 1957. A lot of card games happened during those years.

Willie was my oldest cousin and I was closer in age with his sons, Pete, Mitch & Dean. He was such a great storyteller and just a joy to be around. I had so much fun with them back in the days when we visited Clarion often. A few years back, my sisters and my daughter, husband and I visited Iowa and Willie gave us the tour of all the old places including the Schroder farm. He had so many stories of the old days that meant so much to us. He was a great guy and will be missed by many
