From the bottom of my heart, I would like to thank all of my family members, including in-laws and out-laws, for helping me with the Celebration of Life for my beloved husband, Roger Klein. To Peters Funeral Home of St. Paul for the caring and loving assistance in making all the service plans go so smoothly, and to Vicar Abigail Vetick for your comforting and professional graveside services. Also, a big thank you to Wegner Monument of Central City for the beautiful monument that perfectly matched our other family members’ monuments. Teresa’s Floral of St. Paul, your floral pieces were gorgeous, and everyone told us so. The Wolbach American Legion and the United States Navy Funeral Honors Team, did a spectacular job of honoring Roger for his military service. And a very special thank you to the Nebraska American Legion Riders for the wonderful escort from St. Paul to Wolbach and your class act presence in the cemetery as a sharp honor guard. With everyone’s help, I was able to bring Roger home to his beloved Wolbach. Love to all, Sue Klein
