Our deepest and most heartfelt condolences go out to the Lemke Family, especially Steph. Edith and I have been richly blessed to be Bill & Steph’s next door neighbors for the last couple of years. Getting to know Bill & Steph is one of our treasured memories. We were instantly taken into Bill & Steph’s family & Friends circle, being invited to many family gatherings and events. We were strangers, yet, they took us in.
