May 2024 - Robert Ehrke

 



We hope all of you are well and enjoying the spring weather.  Here is what is happening from the Bob Ehrke side of the family.

Bob

He continues to enjoy living at West Hill Village in Rapid City.  Uncle Bob is busy going to weekly exercise classes, educational presentations, coffee with friends and church when the weather is good.  He also follows South Dakota State baseball, basketball football and local high school sports.

Carol Bartnett

The St. Louis crew is healthy and staying busy. Carol continues as Quality Assurance manager at Novus International, Inc, working remotely with some occasional travel. Carol joined Brian’s family on a Disney cruise in December and all had a great time. Brian works as a manager for Enterprise in corporate financial analysis. He and Amber stay busy with their very active 3-year old, Eleanor, who is involved in swimming, gymnastics and soccer at a toddler level. She will soon have a sister as Brian and Amber are expecting in mid-June.

 

Barb & John Howe

We continue to enjoy volunteering for Guide Dogs of Texas, training guides dogs when we are home.  We made a nice trip to Phoenix visiting Betsy.  While there we went to a Willie Nelson concert—he still packs them in and there is a dedicated crowd of Willie-followers.  We also visited Thomas & Ellen in the San Diego area.  Thomas safely returned from his last 8-month deployment to the Middle East.  He will separate from the Navy at the end of May and enter the civilian workforce.  We also continue to hike & bike in AZ, CO, CA & TX.  We are going to South Dakota in late May to see Dad.  We enjoy hearing updates from all of your families.

Welcome!

  (Photo from the 2023 Ehrke Reunion in Aberdeen, South Dakota) Hello and welcome to the Ehrke Family website!  We are so glad you are here! On this site you will be able to catch up on everything Ehrke!  We will bring the original 9's Round Robin back to life while we all share updates, stories, photos and more. All we need is for each of the Original 9's families to assign a spokesperson.  That spokesperson will send in an update on how everyone from their 9's lineage is doing, exciting updates, photos, etc. for us all to read and enjoy.  We will take turns in the order of the Original 9's births (Albert, Frances, Arleen, Allen, Warren, Anita, Jean, Ronald, Robert) so an update will only need to be sent in once every 8 months. We are very excited to stay up to date with everyone and find out what has been going on with all of the families on the Ehrke tree.
