William Krause Obituary
William Edward Krause, 62, of Jermyn, passed away peacefully at home on May 18, 2022.

He was preceded in death by sister, Catherine Taylor; and brother, Carl (Buddy) Krause.

I will miss uncle billy so much! He was always so kind and helpful to me in the 3 years I got to know him. Ivy will also miss barking at him until she got her petting when he'd come in the gate. Lily will also miss him very much. So sorry to the family for your loss.
