Steve and Chickie Krone says
We always got a laugh from the wood novelty items he made. Louis was a great man and will be missed. Steve and I send you our deepest sympathy and may all of the wonderful memories you had with Louis bring you comfort at this difficult time. You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers. God Bless you.

To the Krone Family:
My family and I would like to express our deepest sympathy over the loss of Mr. Krone. He will be missed by everyone who knew him. When we read Genesis 1:28 and 31, we find that sickness and death were not a part of God’s original purpose. With this in mind, one thing that comforted me after the loss of my parents is our Creator’s plan to restore his original purpose and make it possible for all mankind (including loved ones we have lost in death) to live forever under perfect conditions. (Revelation 21:3-5; John 5:28,29) It is our hope that these words bring you a measure of comfort during this difficult time. Once again, please accept our condolences as you deal with the loss of Mr. Krone and contemplate the hope of seeing him again.

Hey LuAnn,
I saw your dad’s name in the paper when he passed away last fall; however, I could not find the expanded/full obituary. Otherwise, you would’ve heard from me sooner. I was sorry to hear about your father. No matter our age when our parents pass away, it seems we are never ready for it to happen. Sorry for your loss.
I just spoke with Charlene this afternoon, her birthday, if you recall. She is the one who said she found the obituary on-line and guided me to it.
If you get an opportunity, get in touch with me. I’m on e-mail at jonnie.sheehan@hotmail.com
Guess I’m still old school – I do not do fb, twitter, tweet or anything else electronic LOL
Love & prayers to you and yours.
Jonnie
