Letter from Lawrence to Ron

This album was created in the winter months of 1995 by Ron Geisert. There are additional family pictures that could be duplicated for anyone who wants to add to the family history. I hope that the Minnesota, Illinois, and Michigan Geiserts will add more details about their families so that we all have a more complete picture of the whole clan.
I’m including this letter from my dad because it was written on February 13th, just four days before his death. He mentions lettuce and cream which in a way announces the importance of that wonderful wilted lettuce that was always so much a part of the Geisert menu.
After the letter I’ve included several Obituaries. They’re interesting to read because they do give details that I don’t include in the short histories. Some list the mourners who are relatives that I don’t mention. Two of them (Nellie’s and Leslie’s) are very elaborate and make a statement about the change in journalism techniques throughout the years.
