The St. Coletta family has lost another longtime member.  George Kremp passed away this afternoon just two months shy of his 85^th birthday.  George was a man of great faith and truly couldn’t wait for it to be his turn to go to heaven.  George was a devoted Catholic and his spirituality was an essential part of his everyday life.  Coming to St. Coletta in 1946 as a 9 year old boy George called St. Coletta home.  George’s caregivers and friends over the years were his family.  Often times you could find George very prideful in talking about the days where he lived independently in his own home requiring minimal assistance and oversight.  As the years went on and George’s abilities changed he called both Luchenbach and Padua Heights home.

George spent a lifetime at St. Coletta making memories with all that were fortunate enough to know him! While we will miss his presence and contagious smile we find great comfort knowing that he is finally at peace and free of all ailments.  A special thank you to all the staff who made George’s last days with us possible.

Rest in peace George!  You will be missed.
