They lived on the farm until about nine years ago when they retired and moved to Waukon. Of the 12 children which God blessed their union, two daughters, one son and the mother have gone to their eternal home. Nine children, four daughters and five sons, still enjoy the father's presence in their midst.

Although he has already seen 89 winters, Mr. Klemme is still hale and hearty and attends to the duties of the house, even to baking and other work incumbent upon the housewife. He enjoys nothing better than a visit with his children, relatives and friends whom he delights to tell of his early years in the state. On Christmas day, the sons and daughters as usual, braved the cold wintry air and gathered at his home to express the love and regard they have for him.
