As you read this, I have finished my journey here on earth. I go to I know not where, I leave behind Sandra, Kim, David and my wife and very best friend, Janice Elaine.
I was born on my grandfather's farm on December 19, 1934 in Providence, Utah. I died on August 16, 2019. I was the son of Nettie Ranzenberger and Rudy Demler.
I attended East High School and later went to Utah Technical College where I completed a 4-year Certificate of Completion of Apprenticeship as a Machinist at Kennecott Copper Corp.
I worked at Kennecott for 31 years. Retired, and later worked for Sears for 23 years. I left the workforce at the age of 72.
I married Nina Furano on June 9, 1955, later divorced. I married Janice Harvey on Sept. 1, 2012 and have enjoyed the past 15+ years we have had together.
To my friends, and enemies alike, lift a glass and have one for me. Via Condeos my friends- until we meet again.
