  Mr. WILSON of South Carolina. Mr. Speaker, the following thoughtful 
obituary was published on September 26, 2018:

       Kyle Alan Ziegler, age 59, went home to be with his Lord 
     and Savior on Sept. 26th 2018 after a recent diagnosis of 
     brain cancer. He was born in Oberlin on Sept. 18, 1959 to 
     Lyle and Dorothy (Upton) Ziegler and was a lifelong resident 
     of Wellington.
       Kyle graduated from Wellington High School in 1978 and 
     attended Geneva College in Pennsylvania. He was a self-
     employed businessman, operating Ziegler Lawn Care, which he 
     began as a teenager until his diagnosis. He also had other 
     business ventures including a partnership in Wellington Self 
     Storage and remodeling houses with his son Josh.
       On Dec. 4 1982 Kyle married Jean Liles at Church of the 
     Open Door in Elyria, Ohio. Together they raised their 
     children. He was a faithful and loving husband, father, 
     grandfather, and a good friend to many. Kyle enjoyed 
     traveling, especially hiking and exploring in the western 
     United States. He served God in many area churches over the 
     years, and spent his last days sharing Jesus out on the porch 
     with every visitor.
       He is survived by his loving wife of 35 years, Jean; son 
     Daniel Ziegler (Rae-Lynn); son Joshua Ziegler; daughter Kylee 
     Bogner (Kenneth); grandson Emmerich Bogner; granddaughter due 
     in November; brother Mark Ziegler (Joyce); sister Marlene 
     Hamilton (David) and several nieces & nephews.
       Preceded in death by his father Lyle Ziegler, mother 
     Dorothy Upton Ziegler Tegtmeyer, and grandson Daniel Alan 
     Ziegler Jr.
