Notes for Johannes Helzer:

I don't think he is from Dr. Pleve's Helzer chart.

Mar 2008: Email received from Jerry Goertzen.

Jan 2009: Received an email from Fritz Helzer regarding his Helzer / Dinkel family.

Jan 2009: From Patrick Lipphardt I received the following census information for Fritz.

According to Norka's census of 1775, the Helzer family consisted of:

Johannes Helzer, 38

Wife: Anna Maria, 40

Son: Johann Georg, 7

Daughter: Maria Elisabeth, 5

Son: Johannes, 1 1/2

Norka's census of 1798 states:

Johann Georg Helzer, bachelor, moved to Tarlykovka (Dinkel) in 1796

Johannes Helzer moved to Schaffhausen in 1786

Maria Elisabeth, daughter of Johann Helzer married in Orlavskaya in 1790.

(I could not find an entry for Maria Elisabeth in Olavskaya's census of 1798.)

Notes for Anna Maria ?:

Mar 2008: Email received from Jerry Goertzen. After Johannes death in 1790, she moved to Anton, Russia to marry Johann Achtung.

Children of Johannes Helzer and Anna ? are:

8 i. Johann Georg4 Helzer, born 01 Aug 1767 in Enroute to Norka, Russia. He married Anna Margaretha Heinrich; born 1778.

Notes for Johann Georg Helzer:

Mar 2008: Email received from Jerry Goertzen. "Johann George Hölzer (b. 1767), the son of Johannes (b. 1739), was born 1 Aug. 1767 en route to Norka. Later, as a young man, Johann George moved to Dinkel (1796) to marry Anna Margaretha Heinrich (b. 1778). He was the only Hölzer that I could find that had moved to Dinkel, so all the Dinkel Helzers can be traced to him and then back to his parents in Norka."

Oct 2008:

I'm trying to find any information about my great grandparents who lived in Dinkel, Russia. My great grandfather's name was George Fred Helzer (Hoelzer)( Jan 12 1876). His wife's name was Marie Christine Bien (Nov 3, 1876). They had 7 children. Marie, Pauling, Emma, Mollie, Jacob, George Fred Jr., and my grandfather, Herbert Henry (Oct 6, 1910). I know that the majority of the children were born in Dinkel, including my grandfather. They arrived in the U.S. in 1912. I know from my grandfather's naturalization papers that his birth name was Heinrig Hoelzer. I'm not sure if the other family member's names were changed as well. I do know the last name changed to Helzer. I have no information before George Fred Sr. and Marie Christine Bien. If anybody could help me, it would be greatly appreciated.

I decided to check with the 1767 census when Gertrude was still with her parents, Johannes and Anna Margaretha Wilhelm. This would be more accurate than later dates. From that data and later census I would say that Gertrude was born somewhere between 1751 and 1752."

According to the limited documents that are available, the Mennonite Brethren congregation began meeting in the Albina area of Portland by 1891, ten years after the arrival of the first Volga Germans in Portland. By 1892, the church had 22 members and Heinrich H. Helzer (also Hölzer, Hoelzer or Helser) was the minister. Heinrich Helzer was born January 17, 1844 in Norka, Russia. Heinrich married Christina Ross (Rosh) who was also born in Norka (in 1843). According to great-granddaughter Loretta Woodward, Heinrich Helzer was a Mennonite minister in Russia. He and his wife left Norka in 1878 bound for America. They first settled in Hastings, Nebraska where they lived in a Mennonite commune. The commune had a large central house surrounded by cottages. Heinrich and Christina were part of a large group of immigrants from Norka that settled in Portland's Albina neighborhood. The couple arrived in Portland in November 1891. The sons of Heinrich and Christina Helzer, John Charles and George Samuels, started Helser Bros. Transfer Co. in 1902."

Jul 2007: Email from Sherrie Stahl:

Information: August 1974: from the Reformed Zion Church, Harvard, NE, research by Lovelle Niehaus: Information is from the "Reformed Zion church, Harvard, NE", researched by Lovelle iin August of 1974.

Konrad Helzer was a brick-layer. He was born in Norka, Russia 13 Nov 1935 and died 3 Nov 1916 and was buried 5 Nov 1916. He was 81 years old, almost 82 years old. His first wife was Dorothea E. Helzer, geb Hardt. She died 15 Feb 1886. She was 47 years old. They had 17 children. She died from

complications of pregnancy...she stepped in a hole and fell while pregnant.

Konrad's 2nd wife was Anna Margaret (Walter) Schafer. She was first married to John Schafer who died in Russia of cancer, probably in 1886, just before she came to the US. She probably married Konrad in 1886 since his first wife died early that year. If so, they were married about 24 years.

They had no children from this marriage. Anna Margaret's children from her first marriage to John Schafer were: John Schafer, Margaret Schafer Eckhart and Catherine Margaretha Schafer Walter.

Anna Margaret Schafer Helzer died 5 Dec 1910....she was 76 years old (almost 77). She died in Harvard NE and was buried 8 Dec 1910.

Konrad Helzer married #3 to a Christina.....it was also her third marriage. Konrad was buried with his 3 wives in the Harvard Cemetery......we visited him there in 1974.

Konrad Helzer had a son, Conrad Helzer II "Cooney". He worked at the fairs and was very well known in the Hastings and Harvard NE area. HE sold hamburgers and taffy. He made the taffy in a heavy copper kettle. I have the recipe:

THE RECIPE: 10 lb sugar, 1 gallon syrup, 1 lb butter, 1 box chocolate.....this was pulled by hand.

This information was given to me by Mrs. Dale Sergeant (Dorothy Helzer), 1125 Jefferson, Hastings NE. She is the daughter of Coonie Helzer (Conrad II).

My uncle, Edward Walter, told us to go to Harvard NE and stop at the post office and say I was the step-great-granddaughter of Konrad Helzer....the post office directed us to Herman and Rosedor KRUG, Henry Helzer's daughter. We had a lovely lunch with them. They directed us to Dorothy Helzer, all such nice people.

by Lovelle Niehaus

2. Oct 2006: The Helzers from Norka, Russia - By Ellen Campbell For The Independent Web-Posted Feb 18, 2005

ST. PAUL -- Among the multitudes of Germans emigrating to the United States from Russia in the late 19th and early 20th centuries were John and Emma (Traudt) Helzer, who settled in Central Nebraska.

Today, Mamie Helzer Leth, 82, and her sister Frieda Helzer Oakeson, 84, are the last surviving children of Henry and Elizabeth Helzer. Henry was the oldest child of John and Emma, both born in Norka, Russia.

"They were all farmers," Mamie said of grandparents Henry and Emma, "and life was rough for them. Grandma Helzer was from a rich family and her parents didn't want her to marry our grandfather because he had little money. Families had to live together, two or three generations in one house."

Much of the family's history can be found in a Helzer-Trout family book compiled by Phyllis Lorene Helzer Pressler of North Platte, a cousin of Mamie and Frieda. Their early family story is similar to that of other Germans from Russia, which began with Russian Empress Catherine the Great in the 1700s.

The village of Norka was established on Aug. 15, 1767, with 957 inhabitants, people who had left the German regions of Hesse-Darmstadt and Hesse-Kassel the year before. It took the settlers a full year to travel from Germany to the Russian frontier, first sailing from the port of Lubeck to Kronstadt in Russia. After going overland for 200 miles, they continued the difficult journey on rafts down the Volga River, 1,100 miles to Saratov.

The last leg was by wagon over roadless expanses to village sites on the Russian frontier.

When assigned to a village, it was extremely difficult to change because the colonies were established on a commune basis, and land was assigned according to the number of males in each family. Once a village was established, newcomers were not welcome. So it is reasonable to assume the Helzers were among the first settlers of Norka.

It is probable there were many family lines of Helzer (originally spelled "Holzer") in Norka. When people in Germany first adopted surnames, they often chose the name of a thing or place in their vicinity, adding an "umlaut" to the vowel and an "er" at the end. The German word "Holz" means woods, and likely the families with the Holzer name were either woodcutters or lived in the woods.

A number of Helzer families eventually came to the Midwest. Most of those who settled in Central Nebraska are related to one another and can be traced back to another John Helzer, who was born in Norka on March 12, 1842.

However, the direct ancestors of the family branch of Frieda Oakeson and Mamie Leth were another John and his wife, Mary Emma Traudt (Americanized to "Trout"), both raised in Norka. The village was about the size of Central City, and was abolished by the Russians in 1946, long after the Helzers immigrated to the U.S. in the spring of 1892.

At that time they had two sons, Henry (father of Frieda Oakeson and Mamie Leth) and Phillip. John's brother Louie, who had come to America earlier, sent them tickets ($130) and acted as their sponsor, a necessary part of immigration. Taking a freight boat from Saratov, Russia, the family landed in New York three weeks later, then took a seven-day train trip to Grand Island.

John's first job was as a section hand for the Burlington Railroad. He was hired because he had a team of well-trained horses that would work without lines. John gave them verbal orders of "gee" and "haw." This job was in Edgemont, S.D., where their son Louie was born.

Deciding to return to Nebraska, the family made the trip in a covered wagon, which took about 30 days. They first located on a farm in Hamilton County, then went to a farm on Hall County land that later became part of the ordnance plant. They were renters on several other farms before buying a farm near Cairo in 1906.

John had taught himself to read and write English, and became a naturalized U.S. citizen in Grand Island on Sept. 11, 1906.

Henry, father of Frieda Oakeson and Mamie Leth, was born in Norka and came to the United States with his parents at age 4. He married Elizabeth Bader on March 8, 1910, and the couple had six children: Emma, Albert, Walter, Martin, Frieda and Meta (called Mamie). Henry and Elizabeth raised their family on a farm in Gage Valley, located between St. Paul and Palmer.

In recalling family stories, Mamie's strongest impression was of the hard life the Germans had in Russia.

Grandmother Emma worked as a hired girl before marrying. She remembered the homes in Norka as being wooden, with papered walls and dirt floors covered with white sand. Her five brothers all came to America together, arriving on June 28, 1889. They embarked from Bremen, Germany.

Frieda recalled that the Henry Helzer family spoke German in the home until the oldest sister, Emma, started school. Their church services were also in German for many years.

"Emma didn't learn English until she went to school," Frieda said. "The other kids picked it up from her and also from our parents who, at that point, began speaking English in our home for the sake of their children. They had been told that in the United States, they had to speak English."

Frieda and Mamie didn't see their grandparents much. In those early days, it took awhile to get from rural Howard County to Grand Island, so the entire family didn't make the trip very often.

The above story uses much information from the Helzer-Trout family history book, which was compiled by Phyllis Lorene Helzer Pressler of North Platte.

Notes for Johannes Weitzel:

Mar 2008: Email received form Ruth Schultz 2nd spouse.

"The family came to America in 1892 on the Oldenburg 14 April 1892. The Oldenburg must have been making regular runs because it also arrived in January with others from Norka."

Immigration: Although Dr. Pleve indicates that he left Norka in 1892 with his family, he is not on the SS Oldenberg’s ship’s list with his children. This can probably be accounted for because his wife, Anna Maria Yost, died 21 Mar 1892 just before the family was to leave for the USA. He married his second wife, Catharina Heinrich nee Reuspich on 25 Oct 1892 in Norka. They probably went to the USA shortly after the wedding. He was in Grand Island, Nebraska, at his son, Jacob’s marriage to Magdalena (Lena) Weitzel 4 March 1900. He had to give permission for Jacob to be married because Jacob was only 20 years of age.

Notes for John Charles Helzer:

Oct 2006: NOTE: The children changed their last name to the spelling Helser.

Jan 2008: Submitted by Marna L. Hing (nee Helser) to the AHSGR

(see site for complete story)

"My grandfather started and owned Helser Bros. Transfer Co. in Portland. His name was John Charles Helser and I believe he started the business either with his father or a brother. My father Marnell Raymond Helser owned the business after John C. Helser died. My father died in 1948 and my mother Lucy Lee Thomas Helser ran the business until she sold it to Green Transfer in about 1950 or 1951. Helser Bros. remains in business today at 7025 N. Leadbetter Road in Portland.

My family came to the US between 1876 and 1880. One of my grandfathers brothers was born Sept. 16 1876 in Russia and his brother was born Jan. 1 1880 in Hastings, Nebraska, Adams Co. My grandfather was born Sept. 12 1881 in Hastings, Nebraska. They moved to Portland when my grandfather John Charles Helser was 11 years old in 1892. My Helser family must have been one of the first families to come to America. In going back through my notes, Helser Bros. Transfer Co. was started about 1902 by my grandfather John C. and Henry Helzer. At this point I'm not sure which Henry Helzer it was, but I assume it was John C. Helsers' brother Henry who was born Sept. 27, 1868 in Norka.

When my dad owned Helser Bros. it was in NW Portland down by the water front. Next door to the company was a family of Gipsy' s. I was about 5 years old. My dad died in 1948 at the age of 42.

I also have in my notes that Katherine Helzer has a brother Adam Helzer and a sister Mrs. John Rattey. I was looking at my notes I took about 10 years ago and find that Jim and Teri Helser now own Helser Bros. I believe Jim is one of Morrie Helsers' son's. Morrie was my dad, Marnell Raymond Helser's cousin. Morrie's father was Henry H. born Sept. 27, 1868.

The Helser's came from Norka, Saratov, Russia. Their surname in Russia was HOELZER, it was changed to HELZER after they came to the USA. My grandfather changed our name to HELSER sometime in the early 1900 because the HELZERs in Portland were garbage men. That is what I was told by my Aunt Thema Helser. My grandfather, John C. HELSER died in 1929, twelve years before I was born.

Children of John Helzer and Margaret Schrantz are:

+ 1309 i. Marnell Raymond8 Helser, born 25 Apr 1905 in Portland, Multnomah Co, Oregon; died 27 Aug 1948 in Portland, Multnomah Co, Oregon.

Notes for William Yost:

Oct 2008: Kathy,

Since my last correspondence, I have learned that my mother-in-law lived with her Uncle Bill Yost for a short period of time after the death of my father-in-law. I remember meeting him during that time. I believe that he had married a woman many years older, and that she had recently died. Lydia, my mom-in-law, told us about it, as he, Bill, also did. I believe she was 20 or so years older, and that he took extremely good care of her before her death. It's funny how things gradually pop up in the old "memory holder." Norma

"Henry immigrated with his son, William Helzer to the USA about 1900. He married Elisabeth Yost in 1896. There is a discrepancy with William's birth date and Henry's marriage to Elisabeth. It appears from Henry's obituary, and four other children did not come to the United States. It appears they died in Russia, but there are no facts to comfirm this. After arriving in the USA, he married Margareta Albert.

Henry worked in the dairy products industry."

Apr 2009: From Sue McKechnie: "Henry Helzer immigrated to the United States 25 May 1900 aboard the passenger ship, Pennsylvania. His port of departure was Hamburg Germany and his port of entry was NewYork. Accompanying him was his wife Elizabeth Yost Helzer, their son Conrad and William from a previous marriage. According to the ship manifest, their passage was paid by Elizabeth Yost Helzer’s brother, Henry Yost. "

Aug 2008: Received email Sue Myers McKechnie. Nothing on Elisabeth yet.

Apr 2009: CONNECTION TO THE YOST CHART MADE.

Apr 2009: Received email from Sue Myers McKechnie. "I made contact with another cousin in Florida. Her grandmother, Beatrice Helzer Brethauer and my grandmother, Edith Helzer Cook, were sisters. She had found a 1900 census with Henry, Elizabeth, William and Conrad, living with a Peter Bauer and his family. My cousin did remember an Elizabeth Yost, but didn't know how she fit in. Bottom line is I finally have it all figured out. They went to live with Peter Bauer and his family, but the census had Elizabeth listed as Peter's daughter, not true. Elizabeth's parents where Conrad Yost and Anna Maria Krieger. I went through your Yost charts and found Elizabeth's family. One of her brothers married a Bauer and I've got a census that has not only Bauer's listed, but also Yost's, so that is where the connection is. I also noticed that the information regarding Elizabeth's family was made by a Jim Reynolds in Beaverton."

Apr 2009: From Sue Myers McKechnie "From all indications, Conrad died 26 September 1900 at the age of 2or3. Elizabeth died 8 January 1901 at the age of about 29. "

Notes for Conrad HELZER:

Oct 2006: Per Helzer Pleve chart "He moved to America"

Oct 2006: From this site:

By Glenn LaRoy Sitzman

"Conrad Helzer, Jr, became known as Conrad Kindsvater. The surname for both John and Conrad appeared in print and official documents at times as Kindsvater, and at times as Kinsfater. For example, when Conrad married Anna Rohrig at Lincoln on 27 Nov 1900, his name was recorded for the license Conrad Kinsfater, with his parents recorded as John KInsfater and Anna E. Krieger. But in the Census of 1913-1915 both John and Conrad were recorded as Kindsvater. When Conrad's five-year-old daughter Amelia died on 8 Dec 1907, her death was reported in the newspaper under Kinsfater. When John died, the death notice appeared in the Lincoln Star of 10 Mar 1928 as Kinsfater."

"Conrad and family used the surname Kinsfater until the 1940s, when Conrad had his name officially changed back to Helzer. He was apparently persuaded to do so by his daughter Marie, who worked for the FBI in Washington, DC. The change may have been advisable because of Social Security, or it may have been simply that Marie wanted it. Whether he was Conrad Kindsvater or Conrad Helzer has caused some confusion for genealogical researchers. In naming Conrad's children, I will record their surnames as Kindsvater/Helzer."

Notes for Katherine Helzer:

Apr 2008: Received email from Michelle Hallin Monson. Her website is:

"She was born in Norka in 1912 and came to Canada in 1925. Her name is Katherine Helzer. "

She immigrated to Quebec, Canada in 1925 with her father George and her older brother John. Her mother (Elizabeth Weidenkeller) and sister Christine stayed in England for a short time as her sister needed to have surgery on her eyes before she would be allowed to immigrate. Katherine's family settled in Stony Plain, Alberta and she met the son of other German-Russian immigrants, Emmanuel Schnell. They married in 1933 and lived in Ponoka, Alberta. My mother (Dianne) was their 5th child. My grandfather's parents came to Canada in 1911. I was very fortunate to know my great grandparents, John and Amelia (Stertz) Schnell. "

Obituary for her husband, John Schwindt Jr.

Loveland Reporter-Herald, Wednesday, April 22, 1953.

Obit: John Schwindt, 80, died suddenly early Tuesday morning at his home in Berthoud. Born in Norka, Russia, Feb. 25, 1873, he married Anna Schmer there July 7, 1891....

Notes for Anna Marie (Emma) (not yet) Schmer:

Apr 2012: Received an email from Sherri Steele with information on this line.

Burial: Greenlawn Cemetery, Berthoud, CO

"From Anna Marie Emma's Schmer Schwindt's obituary*: "born at Norka, Russia, June 18, 1871, to Mr. and Mrs. Henry Schmer". I estimate that her father, Heinrich Schmer, was born approximately 1844 in Norka. From Anna Marie Emma's husband's obituary*: "John Schwindt ...Born in Norka, Russia, Feb. 25, 1873, he married Anna Schmer there July 7, 1891."

"I think that Anna Marie Emma Schmer's brother might be Conrad Schmer, who was born in about 1865, Norka, img about 1899, and lived in Globeville Colo 1910, 1920, etc.... This is who Hank's family is going to stay with, per the ship manifest. The relationship is identifed as "Brother in law, Conrad Schmer" to Anna Marie Emma's husband.

"“Conrad Helzer Killed When Car Hits Train in Fog"

Conrad J. Helzer, 32, of Caney, Kan., was killed instantly early last Thursday morning when the car he was driving collided with a Missouri Pacific freight train at a crossing one-half mile east of Niotasze, Kan., on highway 166.

He was enroute to Wichita for two days’ work. His car hit the sixth boxcar from the rear of the train which was moving in a southeasterly direction. Apparently the Helzer car and the freight train were both going slowly due to a heavy fog.

Funeral services were held at Caney last Saturday and from the EUB church at Harvard on Monday, with Mrs. Helzer’s grandfather, Rev. L. A. Moser of Lowell, Wis., officiating, assisted by Rev. E. A. Katterhenry.

The son of Mr. and Mrs. Conrad J. Helzer, Sr., of Aurora, he was born at Harvard June 5, 1924. He and Mrs. Helzer were married at Aurora on April 24, 1948.

He was a member of the Caney Masonic Lodge and attended the Presbyterian church. He served in the Air Force during World War II. The family had lived in Caney about four years.

2. This information is from Jerry Fuehrer.

"Seems that Nicholas (Nick) owned the store. He passed away and the probate assigned the interest to his wife and two daughters. The daughters conveyed their interest to their mom Lydia.

Then much later Lydia and John A and Fred sold the property to a Earl Adkins. Earl sold the property to my dad sometime in the late 40’s early 50’s.

Seems like one of the Brehm’s was a butcher in Sutton and then moved to Lincoln? The store had been a butcher shop for as long as I can remember (which in time isn’t long when this property goes back at least to 1883) and I remember hearing dad talk about his cousin Ben Wieland operating the butcher shop before he became part of it before WWII. Also remember hearing about a Brehm that owned the store."

Jan 2008: Notes from Emma Helzer Hockenberry

Mother was Elizabeth Catherine Nagel form Brunnental Russia

For those of you who are wondering where Brunnental Russia was located? I came across a letter dated 1982 to my mother's sister and she states:

"Our mother said she was born in Brunnental in the Province of Samara, now called (Kuybyshev) in Russia. Samara is on the east side of the Volga River. It is about 80 miles N.E. of Saratov. Saratov is on the west side of the Volga River. Brunnental is also on the east side of the Volga River but S.E. of Saratov. All of our relatives lived on the southern end of the Volga. There were over 100 colonies on either side of the Volga who formed the Germans from Russia. These would be Nagels.Vogels, from Brunnental and Helzers from Norka." Also related to Lebsack, Stroh

PS: If your confused so was I. This would be quite a boat trip.

"Emma didn't learn English until she went to school," Frieda said. "The other kids picked it up from her and also from our parents who, at that point, began speaking English in our home for the sake of their children. They had been told that in the United States, they had to speak English."

Frieda and Mamie didn't see their grandparents much. In those early days, it took awhile to get from rural Howard County to Grand Island, so the entire family didn't make the trip very often."

Notes for Meta F Mamie Helzer:

Mar 2008:

They were all farmers," Mamie said of grandparents Henry and Emma, "and life was rough for them. Grandma Helzer was from a rich family and her parents didn't want her to marry our grandfather because he had little money. Families had to live together, two or three generations in one house."

"In recalling family stories, Mamie's strongest impression was of the hard life the Germans had in Russia.

Grandmother Emma worked as a hired girl before marrying. She remembered the homes in Norka as being wooden, with papered walls and dirt floors covered with white sand. Her five brothers all came to America together, arriving on June 28, 1889. They embarked from Bremen, Germany."

Obituary Henry "Hank" Brehm Nov 13, 1908 - June 20, 2006

Henry “Hank” Brehm died Tuesday, June 20, at Presbyterian Manor of Kansas City, Kan. He was 97 years old.

He was born November 13, 1908, to John and Kate (Wilman) Brehm at Beverly, Nebraska. He graduated from Palisade High School. His parents and four brothers preceded him in death – Albert, Joe, Ruben, and Elmer. One sister, Freida Romersheuser, lives in Indianola.

One son, Kenneth, preceded him in death as well. Other children are Donald Brehm and wife Patricia of Omaha, Dennis Brehm and wife Rebecca of Kansas City, and daughter Leona Sigwing and husband Larry of Kansas City. Henry always grew emotional at family gatherings when he was reminded of his 10 grandchildren and 16 great grandchildren.

Boxing was a main pastime as he grew up and then his passion for football took over when he entered high school.

Henry was a wonderful source of living history and storytelling as he reflected on details of family, entertainment, jobs and equipment, horse-pulled wagons for transportation, horses smarter than owners, the first automobiles and on and on.

Born and raised in a community of German immigrants, he was required to learn yet another German dialect, that of Esther Hein, before courting was an option. He won her heart instead of another suitor when she asked each one for a piece of gum. The other suitor gave her one piece. Henry gave her the entire package. Henry and Esther were married December 3, 1933. He lovingly took care of Esther many years while she was bedfast. She died July 5, 1983.

Henry worked hard at whatever he did whether farming, trucking, or “pumping gas.” He always seemed to help others and put a bright spot in lives he touched with a corny joke or a raised arm and “Hi, Bub!” … that was everyone’s name.

He was a faithful Christian, spent many hours praying and reading the Bible. He frequently made comparisons of Biblical events to current events.

Henry was a determined man, loved and now missed by family and friends.

In lieu of flowers, memorials may be given in his name.

Visitation will be Monday, 8:30 to noon at Carpenter Breland Funeral Home in McCook. The family will be present to greet friends from 10-11 a.m. Friends may also leave condolences on-line at carpenterbreland.c

A 1:00 p.m. family graveside service will be at the Culbertson Cemetery with Rev. Richard Melano officiating.

Carpenter Breland Funeral Home of McCook is in charge of the arrangements.

"Small, medium or large, Christmas trees cast the same glow

BY RHONDA STANSBERRY WORLD-HERALD STAFF WRITER

A fitting tree for the queen

Years back, Robbie Mang's sister dubbed her "the Queen."

Now friends call her Queenie.

Mang doesn't mind. She even plays into it: A small accent pillow on a chair reads, "The Queen is not accepting an audience today." Her license plate reads "THE Q."

And her Christmas tree is fit for one.

Standing 20 feet tall, the tree is covered in crystal and gold.

The crystal is real. The gold is not. But the effect is jaw-dropping anyway.

You try to take in what you're seeing: basketball-size gold ornaments, gold butterflies as wide as an open hand, gold crosses. And so much crystal: snowflakes, garlands of faceted beads and dozens of big crystal teardrops - the kind that dangle from dining-room chandeliers.

Her 89-year-old uncle, Ken Scheidt of Scottsbluff, Neb., provided the inspiration in 2000: a gift of a crystal snowflake. With it came a note that read: "Hang this where it gets light and you'll have rainbows in the room. Grandma Alice said it's a sign God loves us."

That ornament started a collection. She searches out crystal snowflakes and buys one a year, from places like Borsheim's. Friends help, too. One friend in Texas sent her a box full of gold butterflies. A crystal star tree-topper was $300.

As she takes the crystal ornaments out of their boxes, she cleans each with window cleaner and a soft cloth and hands them to her husband of 38 years, who's waiting on his scaffold-style ladder.

He's used to heights. Doug is a retired Air Force colonel who now works for the Boeing Co. in Omaha.

He said he enjoys decorating, indoors and out, which he knows is unusual in their tony Linden Estates neighborhood in west Omaha.

Decorating is a two-day job, one to rearrange furniture and put up the tree (it's artificial) and the second day, to hang the ornaments.

As late afternoon light enters the room from arched windows that nearly reach the cathedral ceiling, it's a Kodak moment.

Light falls on the snowflakes. Rainbows dance around the room. ,"
