My Sincerest Condolences to the Buzzi and Jehle families. So Sorry to hear about Gretchen. We spent many hours farming her family’s land by Bethune, CO. God Bless, Michael Hornung
I was her roommate our 2nd year at Monticello College and we both went on to KU and pledged Pi Phi together. She was in my wedding and I attended her wedding and also her daughters wedding. I would be happy to share memories of dear Gretchen. We stayed in contact always, even visiting her in retirement on 13 th street. Kay Dalby Berglund …Salina, Ks. 785-827-6217.
