This isn't just for the members of St. Peter, though. In putting this book together, I transcribed and have made available for the first time the tape that Carl Gramzow recorded from the 100th anniversary in 1972. Speakers then included (all now deceased) Pastor Wilfred Junke, of Trinity, Mt. Clemens; his wife, Eleanor Hahn Junke; Walter Bellhorn (of the Lutheran Deaf Institute); and former Pastor Albert Knoll. There are some interesting local stories mentioned in their talks, like the Stier-Knust wedding of 1907, and Denewith's bridge. I even put a chapter in the back of the things I learned while working on this, as in the oddball facts and stories, all the fun and strange things one learns while working on a project such as this. While it is a book about St. Peter, it just doesn't mention St. Peter. My only wish is that I could have put everything in, but had I done that, this would have been the length of War and Peace.
Copies are available from the St. Peter church office, 586-727-9693 for $6 each, or available from me for $5.50 (I'm selling them at cost). Feel free to email me at billandtina41@gmail.com to ask questions. If you see me around, I always have copies in my car.
