Now part of Berner Foods.

Vernon Kuhlemeier Sr my dad owned this property from 1978 till his death in 2015 my step mom Sharon sold it to Berner Foods and they tore it all down. This place was my Dads heart. Before my Dad my aunt JoAnn and her husband Gene owned this.

Hi Dawn, thank you for sharing your memories of your dad's property. It sounds like it held a special place in your family's heart. Do you have any specific memories or stories about growing up there? We'd love to hear more about your connection to the property and the changes that have taken place over the years. Was the property primarily used for farming?

Alexis lol it was primarily our pet farm. We had our pigs Shake Rattle and Roll. Our cows were Nakoma and Lucille. Our goats were Billy Bobby and Willy. Lots of cats and dogs. All my cousins loved it there. Later on after our brood of farm animals was gone my Dad converted the barn into a garage and he had his Dobermans and fixed plot of cars in that barn. He also worked his tail off updating the house and making it absolutely beautiful.
