Join us as we share the remarkable life of Bill Kruschel, an extraordinary 99-year-old, whose journey from a World War II Navy medic to a beloved member of the White Bear Lake community is nothing short of inspiring. This episode paints a vivid portrait of Bill's early years in St. Paul, Minnesota, his experiences during the Great Depression, and his career ascent at 3M. Bill attributes his longevity and active lifestyle to his mother's influence and a positive outlook, sharing insights on his career transition from the shop floor to management to celebrating his 99th birthday with zest and vigor.
We then turn our attention to the tireless advocacy of a dedicated father whose son with disabilities moved into a group home at 19. His efforts to expand education and care for children/youth with disabilities into a network of homes stand as a testament to unwavering commitment and love. You’ll also hear about his passion for music, riding motorcycles until the age of 94, and the joy he now finds in riding an electric tricycle around White Bear Lake. The local community's excitement over an owl's nest adds a charming touch to this heartfelt narrative.
Lastly, immerse yourself in nostalgic tales of building a fold-down trailer, wartime camaraderie, and the unforgettable Bob Hope shows. This episode is rich with personal recollections, from the Seattle World's Fair to the profound impact of Scouting. Look forward to an upcoming special featuring Bill and his siblings, promising an enriching and heartwarming experience. Tune in to celebrate the goodwill, courage, and determination that define these incredible life stories.
