Stories:
Story 1: Building unchanged since 1941. The Stoecklins originally bought a 75 ft. lot. Later they bought 150 more ft. (110 Miami lot) but sold 100 ft. keeping 50 ft.for a present total of 125 ft. lot.Story 2: Marie was known for high standards, beautiful sewing at St. Thomas Church (including work for the Bazaar), gardening (especially roses), cooking, generosity and caring (trained as a nurse). A few of her words to live by: It will work out; We'll get through this; A new day will come; It's in God's hands.
