I left for this nice place on April 23, 2015 which means I have been with you all for 73 years. How quickly they fly by! To my family all i can say is "Oh My God". Please don't mourn for me. Don't you know I am truly home now? Where I am sitting I can be ALL places and SEE all things. Now I have no fear for I have Wings to lift me up and bring my spirit to you to help lift you up. My parents Laverne (Ralph) Sieben of Geneseo, IL and Hollister Strecker of Seattle, WA preceded me along with my brother Geoffery Strecker of Peoria, IL and my first boy Arthur (Buddy) Evans so they are here with me to show me the ropes and help me to be there for those I left behind when they need me.
