  • I have known Kaethe as far back as I can remember. She was the aunt of my friend when I was younger, and I got to know her better as I got older. She was always friendly, always interested in my life. She was a great hairdresser, and did my hair for my wedding. I have very fond memories of her, and will remember her calling me by my nickname. - Posted by: Betty & Peter Braun (Friends of the family) on: Mar 27, 2015
