klingler genealogy report - Lutheranrose

Mother died that following May, 1935, so there were Ev, Chuck, Don, Lyle, Dorothy, Dick,
Ted and myself left. My brother Chuck had a friend with a car and he would take us to the
home to see Ted, Cick and Dorothy and once in a while we'd take them out for ice cream and
they loved it. After Mom died Evelyn and I still had to pay for the 3 in the home and the bill
kept getting bigger and bigger. We paid the Home for years after we both were married. As
soon as I married, I took Ted and Dick out of the home and sister Evelyn took Dorothy to live
with her. I married the following yr., 1936 and Chet was good to the boys. The yr. After Mom
died my brother Dugan fell off of his bike delivering papers and hurt his knee and it got
infected and the Fr. Said he had T.B. They put him in a TB (tuberculosis) Hospital and the
knee kept getting worse and worse. It finally opened up thru a bed sore on his leg. Drs.
Checked the pus that drained from the leg and said he didn't have TB at all, just a bad
infection. Drs. Then operated on the leg and Lyle was left with 1 stiff leg and he was such a
great kid he didn't complain much at all. Lyle was a super brother to all the family. Our
youngest brother Ted worked for a pipe covering Co. And he saved his money and bought his
own business, Insulation Co. And he hired Chuck an Do;;n to work for him. He lived with me
and saved and bought his own home. He is a wonderful brother to all of us and he always was
ready to help any of us out. He was a good friend of Jens Nielsen and his wife Marilyn and
they treated him like he was one of their family, when Jens Nielsen died of a heart attack Ted
was very good to Marilyn and their children. He ended up marrying Marilyn and I was glad as
they were happy together. Ted was good to Marilyn's children and she's been a good wife to
Ted and they've had many happy years together. In the last yrs. during Ted's sickness Marilyn
and Mike, her son, have been a life saver for him. They, Marilyn and Mike have both done a
super job of taking care of Ted for the past 2 yrs.. Ted didn't want to go to a hospital and Mike
has given up his life to take care of him.
