KLENKE’S 5 GENERATIONS
Front Row: Charles and Joan Klenke from the Waynedale area and their newest Great, Great Grandchild, Brooklyn Simmons from Huntington. Brooklyn was born 14 weeks early, on September 4th and weighed 1 lbs. 2 ounces. She was in the neo-natal unit at Parkview Hospital until her release in December (her original due date).
Through the love, prayers and wonderful care from the Neo-Natal unit nurses, Brooklyn is now nearly 14 lbs.
The Klenke’s have been blessed with 2 other Great, Great Grandchildren, Isabella Krause and Matthew Wise.
Back Row (L-R): Chelsea Kinzie-Brooklyn’s mother; Dawn Anders, Grandmother; and Dianne Diehl, Great Grandmother.
