MEMORIAL DAY
🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
The year 2022 started on a sad note for this " Saint Paul" Tschida family. We lost not one, but 2 brothers to cancer within weeks of each other.
Today is a particularly appropriate day to remember their lives not only as brothers, but also because both of them were US Veterans. Nicky was a veteran of the Vietnam war; and Tommy chose a military career making him a veteran of the Vietnam, Gulf and Iraq wars.
Tommy's life travels and Air Force career took him to California. So since the past 45 years have taken place in the Mojave Desert, his celebration of life services took place in Silver Lakes California on Saint Patrick's day, March 17th 2022. A most noteworthy date for an "Austrian-Irishman" from St. Paul Minnesota!
Nicky's life travels remained in St. Paul Minnesota with the intermittent music pursuits taking him to parts unknown! But his final decision was to part with his Saint Paul roots and venture to New Mexico, where the climate was far more favorable to an avid, aging walker! A private inurnment is scheduled for this summer at Fort Snelling.
St.Paul is a "family unto itself" and we have received hundreds of kind and loving words from family, friends and even just the Saint Paul community in general.
Since their lives took them to distant cities away from St Paul, we have decided to gather for an evening of sharing memories and just celebrating a couple of local lads!!
DATE: WEDNESDAY JUNE 8, 2022
WHERE: Mancinis Rathskeller at The Old Schmidt Brewery located on West 7th Street in St Paul MN
TIME: 5-9pm
Light hors d'oeuvres and a cash bar will be available.
You are welcome to join us!!!
Thank you for all the calls, cards and kind words expressed to the family on the loss of our brothers!!
Fondly,
The Tschida's
