Reading a series of obituaries from a single cemetery, as they are presented here, is like reading the multi-generational history of a community. These people were the local populace at a particular time. The people buried here knew each other, were neighbors, relatives and school mates. They attended church together and engaged in "trade" or business. All people are listed in alphabetic order by surname at BIRTH. Women identified by a married alias only and for whom a birth surname can not be identified, are listed on the last page for the cemetery's obituaries. Please send in typed obituaries for people buried in our local cemeteries. If possible include name of newspaper and date. Send typed in your email or in attached Word files. Send to Joyce M.

EDWARD PAUL
SCHWENKLER died Thursday, 14 July 2016, surrounded by his family after a
short bout with cancer. Born 25 July 1932 in Elmira, Edward was the youngest
of six children born to Anthony Alphonse Schwenkler and his wife, Frances M.
Przybylski. His father was a chemist and a teacher of sciences for more than
three decades at Elmira Free Academy. Edward grew up on Grove Street in
Elmira and attended Elmira Catholic grammar schools and Elmira Free Academy.
He served as a pilot in the United States Air Force and later received his
B.S. in Ceramic Engineering from Alfred University and his M.S. in Ceramic
Engineering from Ohio State University. Ed followed his father's footsteps
in becoming a science teacher in the Elmira City School District and over
the course of three decades taught at Ernie Davis Junior High, Elmira Free
Academy and Southside High School. He was well-loved by his students for his
humor and his unorthodox and occasionally perilous teaching methods.
However, his interest in matters scientific ranged far beyond his work and
neither the stars in the sky nor a curious rock could escape his scrutiny.
From a young age Ed displayed a love of aviation. He started building balsa
gliders as a boy and soon grew to piloting sailplanes at Harris Hill. He was
a long-time member of the Harris Hill Soaring Club, introduced many a person
to the wonderful world of soaring, and served as an instructor at the
Schweitzer Soaring School. His youngest daughter, Elizabeth, picked up his
love of soaring and is known internationally as a competitive sailplane
pilot. Ed was an exceedingly ambitious gardener of vegetables and lover of
plants in general, particularly cacti, and his home was populated with a
small jungle of exotic flora. He was very athletic right to his last years,
walking several miles every day and playing tennis at every opportunity. Ed
and his wife Janet were devout members of their Church community and were
mainstays of the late night shift at St. Casimir's Divine Mercy Chapel in
Elmira. On 29 August 1959, Edward married Janet Therese Michel, daughter of
Paul D. Michel, Esq., and Esther W. Kent of Marion, Ohio. She lives on with
wonderful memories of his 57 years of devotion. They raised five children in
Elmira with great love and attention, all of whom survive: Anne (Kevin) Ward
of Panama City, Florida; Sister Marie Christine ("Mary") of the Poor Clare
Colettine Sisters in Rockford, Illinois; John E. Schwenkler, Esq., of
Elmira; Paul A. Schwenkler of Herndon, Virginia; and Elizabeth (Thomas)
Geiger of Bissingen an der Teck, Baden-Württemberg, Germany. Ed is survived
by four grandchildren, Michael Ward (and his very special wife Alina), David
Ward, Rebecca Geiger, and Rachel Geiger, and a great grandson, Erik Ward;
sisters Mary Cain and Jean Garvey; countless nieces, nephews and cousins. Ed
was a genuinely kind, unassuming, and generous man, who would help anyone in
need. He was a friend to the elderly and infirm across the county and could
be found quietly delivering his home-cooked soups to those no one else found
time for. He visited those that few visited and attended their funerals when
few others did. He did these things because they came naturally to him.
Family and friends are invited to Kalec Funeral Home between 8:00 AM and
9:15 AM today, Saturday 16 July 2016. A prayer service there at 9:15 AM,
followed by his Mass of Christian Burial in St. Casimir's Church at 10:00
AM. Burial to follow at Sts. Peters & Paul's Cemetery. The family wishes to
extend its sincerest thanks to the staff at the Chemung County Nursing
Facility for their immense compassion and diligent care of Ed during his
brief stay there. Those wishing may make a donation in Ed's name to the
Adoration Chapel, C/O 1010 Davis Street, Elmira, NY. –Elmira Star-Gazette
