Anna Haines Passes Away

    Anna Waltraud (Ueltzhoeffer) Haines, "Uli/Traudel," a resident of Edgewater, MD since 1989, previously Janesville, WI and Schwetzingen Germany, died peacefully on Monday, September 17, 2018, at her home. 
    Uli was age 69, born May 15, 1949 in Schwetzingen,Germany, to the late Albin and Ida Ueltzhoeffer. Uli received vocational technical training to become a Master Journey Woman in interior decorating and design in Mannheim Germany. She worked as a window display artist until she met her one and only husband of 49 years, John Freeman Haines. An all-powerful "Jesus Love Arrow" hit them both on Easter Monday Holiday in 1969 at the grand opening of "Shepherd's Lounge" in Heidelberg Germany. Uli married John on August 16, 1970 at Bay View Norwegian Evangelical Lutheran Church in Sturgeon Bay WI, USA . After marriage, she and John first lived and worked together as resident managers for two years in the Title Town Motel in Green Bay WI. That is where she learned real "American English" from Green Bay Packer football players, their football competitors and other motel guests. Thereafter she moved often with John, a Federal and State government Environmental Health and Safety Consultant, to Milwaukee, WI. Then Schwetzingen Germany, Janesville, WI and finally Edgewater, MD. All the while Uli was a wonderful loving wife and homemaker. Starting in 1975, she became a wonderful loving mother to son Chris and in 1980 son Lukas. As they were older, Uli rejoined the workforce for several interior design and decorating firms in the USA and Germany. She also taught German language and interior design at a WI Technical College. Wherever the family moved, Uli was a faithful Christian church attendant with her family. As well as joining John in church choirs singing Alto and serving in kindergartens. For about 10 years Uli participated with John and son Lukas in Christian Ministries to USA Military and First Responders like Pointman and Project HOPE. Uli was predeceased in death by her father and mother, named above, her siblings, Rolf and Rainer Ueltzhoeffer. 
    She is survived by her husband, John ; two sons, Christian and Lukas Haines; sister, Veronika Roesch and one grandson, Oscar Haines. Uli's husband John praises and thanks Jesus Christ, The Great Physcian, all family, friends, Brothers and Sisters in Christs, Doctors, Nurses and caregivers, everyone who loved, prayed, supported and helped us care for, cope with and prevail against Uli's long difficult Alzheimer illness. Which had an early onset in 1995 and gradually worsened but during which Uli was always cheerful and a joy to care for.
    Everyone is cordially invited to a memorial and celebration of life service for Uli on Friday, October 19, 2018 at 10 am at Chesapeake Christian Fellowship(CCF), Davidsonville, MD. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to Project HOPE, c/o CCF, 377 W. Central Ave., Davidsonville, MD 21035. www.4theLord.org., contact John 410-940-8836 or CCF 410-798-1413.

The current officers were re-elected:
Christopher Asher, President
H. Edward Woods, Vice President
Gail Enright, Secretary
Brian Stanton, Treasurer
Will Biddle was ecstatic to be relieved from Treasurer duties by Brian Stanton in March. Thanks to both of them for keeping the books.

Peter Sutton Passes Away

    It is with great sadness that the family of Peter Mark Sutton announces his sudden passing on Monday, September 10, 2018, at the age of 73 years at Anne Arundel Medical Center. 
    Pete was born April 30, 1945 in New York City and was a resident of Crofton, Maryland for 49 years. He graduated Penn State University in 1967 with a BA degree. He then joined the Red Cross as a field director. He was stationed at Ft. Meade where he met his wife, Karen. In October of 1968 he started his 44 year career at NSA. The things he held most dearly were God, family, friends and country. He was always so full of compassion, love, laughter, and wisdom. He was a mentor, a friend who taught us that family and relationships were what were most important in life. He was a true warrior and fighter and never let anything get him down. 
    He was our "Iron Horse". Pete was dearly loved and will be sorely missed by his surviving family: wife, Karen of 50 years; his three children, Kristine (Frank) Ford, Tammy (Tom) Taylor and Jason (Jennifer) Sutton; and eight grandchildren, Tyler, Brayden and Jackson Ford, Sedona and Luke Taylor, Noah, Joshua and Emma Sutton; his two sisters, Pamela Greenwood and Marcia Webb; and brother, Scott Sutton. He enjoyed spending time with his family, playing chess, working on jumble puzzles, watching movies and helping grandchildren with their schoolwork. He loved playing trivia, pool and sports, especially Steelers and Penn State football, Pirates baseball and Syracuse basketball. He loved traveling; cruises were his favorite. He held all his friends close to his heart and loved his Alma Mater, as well as his fraternity brothers. Tom Kuhn was not only one of Pete's fraternity brothers but he remained Pete's lifelong best friend for 58 years. 
    A celebration of Pete's life will be held at Riva Trace Baptist Church, 475 W. Central Ave., Davidsonville, MD on Friday, September 21 at 1:00PM. We ask that family and friends dress in either a Hawaiian shirt, something colorful or in the gear of one of Pete's favorite teams...Steelers, Pirates, Penn State or Syracuse. He was not one who enjoyed formal attire and we know he would love to see everyone looking bright and cheery, laughing and smiling as they recall the wonderful stories and time spent with him.
