A funeral service was held at First Congregational UCC on Friday, October 10th, 2025. Gene Ellis Krueger was born on December 21, 1931, to Herman and Helen Krueger. He grew up in the town of Pine River near Merrill, Wisconsin. He went on to Mission House and Seminary in Sheboygan (now Lakeland University), and was ordained in 1956. Gene married the love of his life, Gwen Ruben, in 1966. They had two daughters Sarah and Leah. Gene served several UCC congregations in Alma, Cochrane, Sheboygan and Antigo.
On Sunday, August 24th an outdoor worship service and church picnic was enjoyed by both First Congregational UCC and Zion UCC at the Redgranite site. It was nice to have members from both churches together for the event. Even though it was a bit breezy and chilly, there was nice sunshine, and everyone looked cozy under their blankets during worship. The potluck was excellent, with lots of tasty food choices enjoyed by attendees. Thank you to all who helped with the planning, set up, food and clean up.
