Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
Grandma, Mrs Henry (Mary) Keller, was a very special lady. She often said she didn't have a thing to eat in the house but when you sat down at her table you felt as if you were royalty. She had enough food for an army. It reminds me of the Biblical story of the loaves and fishes. There was always enough for anyone who might walk in the door at the last minute and not have had dinner. She served everything from fried chicken, to a salad, potatoes, vegetable, bread, and always some kind of dessert. She seemed to love company especially her children and grandchildren and their families.
Mary Keller, daughter of Peter and Johanna (Rindle) Milfred and the parent of 9 children: Helen (Mrs Don) Frosch, Norbert (Ruth) Keller, Erwin (Lorena) Keller,
Clement(Gen) Keller, Mary (Rudy) Hutter, Harry (Elsie) and, twin brother, Robert (Phyllis) Keller, Frances (Ray) Hubl and Donald (LaDema) Keller.
