Wanda M. Buehrle

Wanda M. Buehrle, 83, of La Crosse, beloved mother, grandmother and great-grandmother, went to be with the Lord on Sunday, March 4, 2007.

She was born on Aug. 23, 1923, to Conrad and Hazel Olson. She was preceded in death by her sister, Marilyn; and a daughter, Carol. Wanda is survived by sons, Chip, David, Doug and John; grandchildren; and great-grandchildren.

Wanda’s greatest love and dedication was her family. She had great love for her friends from associations, including Community Theatre and doll and miniature restoration.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be given to the American Diabetes Association.

In honor of Wanda’s life, family and friends will gather on Sunday, March 11, from 3 to 5 p.m. at Baus Haus, 1920 Ward Ave., La Crosse.

Dickinson Family Funeral Home and Crematory assisted the family.

Grandma Wanda Buehrle

My Grandma Wanda Buehrle passed away last night. I very simply want to say that we will miss her. She loved her family and we loved her.

Here are two pictures from our last visit with her in the fall.

Greatest Love Song

This is, perhaps the greatest 80s-style power ballad sung by a white actor portraying a Mexican monk/minister/cook/pro-wrestler (luchador) from the movie Nacho Libre. Always brings tears to my eyes. Or maybe those tears come from being over-medicated. Now I'm going to take my mom's advice. I'm going to step away from the keyboard and go take a nap.
