RURAL BRYANT, SD, PRESENTS:
A STADEM FAMILIES' TRIBUTE TO
OF THE TRUE BLUE SAINT, MAMA & GRANDMA, BERGIT STADEM,
DOING WHAT SHE DID BEST:
PRAYING FOR US SINNERS!
MAY 27-30, 1988,
BY BERNICE STADEM SCHAEFER:
Saturday evening we heard our father speaking on a tape that had been sent by him to California long ago. The voices of the Stadems and their little ones before school age, and Grandma's weak voice after the funeral of our dear Dad--telling of how she was so weak and having no appetite but eating to receive strength to go on. Her testimony also was one we shall never forget.
