bringing communion to the home, visits, calls, cards, prayers, masses, beautiful flowers, plants, stamps, paper

Building Fund in memory of Sylvia. A special thank you to Fr. John and Fr. Ronald Comeau for the beautiful
celebration of life service, Organists - Lisa Brinkman, Michelle Barnhart and the St. Joseph Choir for the
beautiful music, Servers - Madalyne Barger, Ethan Redeker and Kadon Redeker, and the Knights of Columbus

-The family of Sylvia S. Klumpe

“Thank you to everyone for their condolences, bringing food to our homes, and help with our mother’s funeral. We
appreciate Father John for being there to give Mom the last rights the night of her passing and for the rosary and
funeral service in the following days. He was a great comfort to all of us. Thank you also for the choir and other
members of the church who give so willingly of their time and talents. The choir always provides amazing music.
The church was beautifully decorated for Christmas which always was a season that Mom loved and made a perfect
background for her funeral. Thank you also to the Knights of Columbus for providing a wonderful place to hold the
dinner and to the ladies and gentlemen of the parish who set up the tables, made food, served, and cleaned. We
appreciate each and every one of you.” ……The Family of Lucille Trear

“Thank you all for all the prayers, cards, and support given to me this past year as I went
through chemo. I’m currently in remission and couldn’t have done it without all of you along with
a loving family and friends. Most importantly, a strong faith in God! Prayers were answered.
Thank you again.” …..Judy Andersen
