Arlene (Schjei) & Romie Klimek Family

 

1945 to 1946 - First grade in Brandon.  If I remember right, Chris, we were in a senior class play as twins?  Following years of grade school were in District 82 south of Brandon.

Romuald Klimek and I were married October 30, 1956.

 

We farmed near Alexandria, Nelson and now in Glenwood, Minnesota.

 

We had five children, our first two sons passed away. 

My hobbies are crocheting, decorating all kinds of cakes, flowers, bowling and I just learned how to make Hardanger doilies and things.

 

I worked at Pete’s County Market as a meat wrapper and demoing meat samples from 1986 to 2000. 

 

We celebrated our 50^th wedding anniversary in 2006 at the Lakeside Ballroom. 

 

We celebrated with our family:

I take care of Carly every Monday and half day on Friday and Jackson, off-and-on. 

We did a lot of travelling: Costa Rica, Hawaii, Germany, Alaska, Canada and many of our states and still do, if it works out at the farm.

The Long Lake Lodge, where we are holding our 2013 class reunion, is my birthplace and home until I was married.
