Grandma Stoehrs funeral



Grandma Marjorie Stoehr passed away two weeks ago. We drove up to Shawano Wisconsin last weekend for her funeral. It was great to see all of the aunts, uncles, siblings, cousins, etc. that came. It was perfect rainy Wisconsin weather. We LOVE you and miss you grandma but know that you did all that you were called to do in this life and that you are happy. Thank you for your wonderful example of faith, service, and selfless charity.




Sadie was cute as can be.


We spent quite a bit of time together with family before and after the funeral. Uncle Kelly took us to an awesome museum/zoo/harley store. We all loved the 7 motor motorcycle.


After the funeral we headed south again. We spent the night in Chicago. SunCoke Energy is moving to Chicago in the Spring and I've been invited to go so we spent a little time on the way up and back to explore the area. We stopped by a chapel and talked with a church member for a while. Then we went to the temple. Since it was Sunday the gates were closed but some more members drove by and stopped by to speak with us for a while.




I don't know if we'll end up moving to Chicago or not but it is really quite a beautiful city in the fall.


On our way out of town we went to the zoo at Lincoln Park. It was a great great memorable trip.


I had meetings in Middletown Ohio on Tuesday and Haverhill Ohio on Wednesday. Cindy and the kids were shopping at IKEA outside Cincinnati when a tornado warning sounded so everyone went down into an underground hallway for a little bit. Luckily I was able to get there and we were able to travel to Haverhill without incident.

We went to Chicago in the fall (September...okay maybe that is still summer), it was also beautiful and such a cool city. Very enticing. I don't know about those winters though. But I guess it beats terrible winters in some less desirable city right? Happy New Year!
