Dear Jeanne - besides you and I going back to Kindergarten, I worked with your dad at Clarke Floor. He was my very first boss there and I worked for him in the Service Department Purchasing area. I came in as a temp and he was instrumental in me getting me hired full-time permanent, well as permanent as a job can be. He was a great guy, very respected in the purchasing field, and a great mentor. So sorry for your loss. Renae Hesselink
Dear Jeanne, Frank and I had a good chat with your dad at Seminole Shores. His memory was very keen and he seemed to really enjoy reminiscing with us. My mom also enjoyed his company in the dining room. We are sending thoughts of love and peace to you. Jessie Schultz, Frank and Mary Ann Krause
Dear Jeanne, sorry for your loss. Thinking of our memories, your dad marrying the former Margie Kresnak. And all the fun and wonderful memories of our Christmas Eve family get togethers at Grandpa and Grandma Kresnak's. We had lots of nice memories from those times. Love, from Aunt Barb.....
