Hans Toensfeldt | February 1, 2023

We have lost a most valued member of our community this week. Hans passed away peacefully, surrounded by family Wednesday evening. As many of you know, he has had health problems for the last few months. He was active in our community to the end and has added so much over the 40+ years. A memorial will be planned and I will keep our community informed. If you have a story about Hans, please share with me and I will make sure the family gets it. He will be missed!
