We offer our heartfelt prayers to the entire Wienert family during this difficult time. Although we didn't know Robert, we both know his daughter Amy Deere, a wife and a mom to two beautiful daughters, Ally and Nola. Her Dad's lifetime of hard work and dedication to Family is reflected every day in Amy's life at home and at work. God now has another star in Heaven. God Bless Robert Wienert.
