These are the memories of Mildred (Koenemann) Schroeder. Born December 16, 1916 on a farm in Indiana. She died on April 28, 2007 at the Lutheran Home in Fort Wayne, Indiana.

The memories have been lovingly transcribed by her sister, Lillian, and edited for the web by her son, Roy.

Mildred calls her memories THE GIFT OF FAITH. We hope you find the stories interesting, amusing or uplifting.
As you have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving. ( Colossians 2:6-7 )

December 16 1916 - April 28, 2007
