Wink was my cousin as were his brothers, Max and Bryan. As a child I remember when they came with their parents to visit I would always be in tears because they would get all my toys out and leave a mess when they left. Still, they were family and I loved them. I, Cherie (Schirmer) Greer am now 77 years of age living in Savannah, GA and am the last living relative of the Schirmer (my father Kenneth) and Cleek (my mother Elizabeth) families. I am deeply sad for their loss so many years ago but they live on in my heart. May the Lord Bless them and their families. Amen.

I have known Wink since the early 1970's. I worked with him at Hendricks Rexall Drug store at the Westside Shopping Center, where he mentored me and behaved always as a cool hip big brother towards me. The last time I saw him was at my Dad's celebration of life service in early October 2009, it was great to see him there and so kind of him to come. I will remember Wink always, fondly and dearly, as a great guy with a gentle soul.

Deepest condolences,

Sue Ramsauer
