Last week, the world lost a very special lady; Helen Florence Kinzler - Nick's grandma. Grandma Kinzler was just recently diagnosed with cancer and while the family knew the prognosis was not good, she passed a lot sooner than everyone thought. It was a very tough week for Nick's mom Sheri and her family. But they have managed to get together and share their memories of their mom over the past weeks. We're very thankful that Sheri planned a gathering for her family on Saturday, June 16; Helen died just two days later on Monday at the age of 76. Saturday was the last time many family members, including us, got to see her. She was a fun loving, spunky lady who LOVED her "puppy" - she rarely left home without him!! She loved to share her Finnish words and stories of her mother and how they grew up. She was a great cook and Nick's dad couldn't get enough of her German Chocolate Cake!!
This four generation picture was taken at the party at Sheri's house on June 16.
Rest in Peace Grandma Kinzler! You will be missed!
What a nice tribute to Grandma K and a sweet photo. A priceless treasure.....especially for Julianne. Sorry for your family's loss. Wish you all peace.
