- Obituary:
Herman Voelker, after a long four years of struggling with liver disease, finally succumbed Dec. 28, 2006, at 8:03 p.m. He was born Aug. 20, 1964, and passed away at the age of 42.
Herman's last days were spent at Pine Ridge Extended Care Center. He was surrounded by family and friends when he took his last breath and went to be with our heavenly father.
Herman loved to fish, ride his horse "Blaze," and do things with his family. He was very friendly and always willing to lend a helping hand. He loved to joke around and was always fun to be with. His joyful eyes and wonderful smile always brightened up the room.
Herman loved his heavenly father and his heart was always turned toward God. Herman will be terribly missed by all his family and friends. But their consolation is that they will one day see him again when Jesus comes again and resurrects all those who have fallen asleep and have trusted in His promise of eternal life.
Herman has left behind his wife, Michele "Shelly," daughter Melissa, sons David and Nicholas, all from Pagosa Springs; his mother, Josfina, sisters Doris Serna, Mina Cortez, Elsa De La Torre; brothers Adolf and Alex, and numerous nieces and nephews, all from southern California.
A memorial service was held at the First Assembly of God Church Sunday, Dec. 31, at 4 p.m. In lieu of flowers, there is a bank account for donations at the Bank of Colorado to help the family in this hard time.
