    Nancy, Sorry to hear about the loss of your father. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Your note to me when I lost my father meant so much to me that I wanted to let you know that I am now thinking of you at this difficult time.
  2. Betty ( Blliemeister) Tigges
    What can I say about Dad but he is the greatest man I have ever known. He taught me more about life, nature, and god then any school could ever teach. He taught us that money isn't everything you just have to make do with what you got, and we did. We didn't have all the fancy toys that kids have now or then,we made our own fun like riding our calves because dad said we could not have a horse. We did alot of things to numerous to mention but that will always stand out in my mind the most. He also taught us the love of the land, going with him in the field on the tractor, riding in the wagon while he was combinding corn. He surely was the greatest dad a child could ever ask for. I will miss him greatly every day of my life.

    Grandpa is definitely going to missed, not only by his family, but by good friends and acquaintances who knew him in his lifetime. He leaves behind a legacy for this family to follow behind filled with the best memories that are going to live in our hearts and minds for the rest of our lives. Grandpa, you will be missed and I love you.

    We are so sorry to hear that Conrad passed away. There is know words that help heal the pain you are feeling right now but time helps. We both have memories of of when you lived out by Dean's parents and he ran around with Dan and me with Linda. I remember Brenda when she was first born and she had all that dark hair. I thought you guy's were so lucky to have a new little sister. How about the time I was out there when you butchered chickens. I remember Conrad laughing at me city girl. So many good memories that is what will get you through and prayers. With our Deeepest Sympathy to all of you. We will keep you in our prayers Love Dean and Carol
  5. Gary and Gail Elsasser
    We are so sorry to hear of your loss. When I called my mother-in-law Marge Elsasser, to tell her of the funeral notice on the internet, she had many fond memories of Conrad when he would come to stay with her family as a young man. She said he was always one of her favorite cousins, and such a nice man. Many great memories I'm sure. Sometimes a bit of family tree info is needed when unknown cousins contact each other. Marge was the daughter of Paul Bliemeister, a brother to Conrad's dad. She married Gilbert Elsasser of West Point, and had three children. Linda, Ken, and Gary. I am married to Gary. Perhaps Tom Coe would recognize my name as I was once a Benner from Scribner. I believe he graduated with my brother Todd. We really appreciated his sympathy sentiments when Todd died in February. Our deepest sympathies to your family. Gary and Gail Elsasser
