Memories: 3
Enter a personal reminiscence or story.
Bill had put together his first car, a Saxon, little old puny thing compared to his Uncle August's Oldsmobile. His brothers knew Bill intended to take Edith to the city, so they decided to make the trip memorable. They had caught a skunk who had been stealing eggs from the coop and put it in Bill's trunk, or what passed for a trunk on that car.
After driving for a bit, Bill stopped the car on Gratiot wondering where that awful smell was coming from, never thinking it had been riding right along with him, until he popped open the trunk!
from memories of Lidwina (Schulte) Geiger

Bill was a retired bank teller who worked at the First State Bank of East Detroit.
Granddaughter, Kim, remembers: "Grandpa Schulte had a series of canaries -- yellow ones, all named Willie. The canaries would sit on his shoulder or his hand and he loved them. They sang beautifully."
Bill is buried at Resurrection Cemetery in Clinton Twp, Macomb, MI.

He just loved birds ... as Cousin Mariana mentioned my memory of the canaries. But he made his own bird feeders and made bird feeders for all of the family.
Grandpa did NOT like squirrels. He hunted them with a passion. There was a forsythia bush outside the home in Roseville. It was like a cemetery when they dug it out ... countless skeletons of squirrels who were buried among the roots.
The BOY cousins were brought in to shoot, but my sister & I were the only girls. You just didn't do much of that in the old days. Funny thing, though. Both my sister and I went into the Military Police and law enforcement for her, an Air Force commission for me.
WE were the ones who ended up firing various rifles, handguns, machine guns and grenade launches professionally. Ha ha ha. ;) I think he'd have been proud of that.
