St. Peter, Minnesota -- Funeral services for Waldemar Ferdinand Boening, age 87, and formerly of St. Ansgar, Iowa, were held Saturday, Oct. 8, 2005 at Immanuel Lutheran Church, St. Ansgar, with Rev. Dr. Byron Northwick officiating.
His human remains were interred next to those of his wife Irmgard, in Immanuel Cemetery, St. Ansgar. Waldemar passed away of natural causes at a hospital in St. Peter, Minn. on October 4, 2005.
Born on April 23, 1918 in St. Ansgar, Iowa, Boening lived a long and full life characterized by hard work, good health, moderate leisure, and general contentment. Boening's character was formed by his family and the severities of the great depression and remained largely constant throughout his life. He believed in God, and was warm, generous, responsible, good-humored and morally upright. Stoic and steadfast in adversity, and frugal by nature, he could also be stubborn and knew how to procrastinate (he would joke about the latter tendency). He remained alert until near the very end of his life.
Boening served in World War II, married Irmgard Floesser (deceased 1999) of Germany in 1953 and successfully raised a large family in southern Minnesota. He retired from the Minnesota Department of Transportation in 1983 and lived with Irmgard in both Minnesota and West Virginia after retirement.
He is survived by a brother and sister, Paul Boening of St. Paul and Ruth Natchway of Portland, Ore.; five sons, Mark of Fargo, N.D.; Franz of Harpers Ferry, W.Va.; Andre of Lindal, Nebraska; Luke of St. Paul and Eric of White Bear Lake, Minn.
Schroeder & Sites Funeral Home, St. Ansgar was in charge of arrangements.
(641) 713-4920.
