Memorial Service
Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
Bob, Sonny & Phil–We extend our sympathy to you & your families in this time of sorrow. Aunt Helen lived a full life and a good life for such a long time. My best memories of her were at my mother’s Thanksgiving dinners. She was always there & glad to see everyone & catch up on the family news. Those dinners were really Brecheisen reunions and you had a chance to stay in touch with family. She loved all the children & what they were doing & we always heard about her granddaughters & even the great-granddaughters. She really had a great love of family. We’re more scattered now –even in my own family (I have one daughter, Laura, & her husband David in New Jersey, Anne & Tim live here & Amy, is in Manhattan, KS) but we are here if you need us. Craig & I are still in Overland Park, KS–since 1975 (Where has the time gone??) I wish we could attend the service, but we are going out of town on Friday & must get ready. Amy might possibly come as she has a college friend that works in Wichita & her Grandma Buller lives there too. We’ll be thinking of you on Thursday. Love, Mary K. & Craig Buller Laura & David Winks Anne & Tim Anderson Amy Buller
