Emil Hoehne Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Emil believed God ordained every day of his life even before he came to be. He was born on July 1, 1928, the second child of Esther & Emil Hoehne, and was washed with the waters of Baptism on August 3, 1928 at St. Paul Lutheran Church (Des Peres, MO). He was nurtured in the Faith at his Christian home, St. Paul Lutheran Church & School, Concordia Teachers College (River Forest, Ill), Concordia Seminary (St. Louis, MO) and Concordia Lutheran Church & School (Kirkwood, MO). After graduating college in 1952, he married his precious Ruby (Niewald) who presented him with two wonderful sons, Gary & Mark. Their sons blessed them with two beautiful daughters-in-law, Sandy & Wanda, who blessed them with three loving grandchildren, Andrew, Lauren & Kaitlyn. The Lord guided him into the exciting Ministry of Teaching at Concordia and Christ Community Lutheran Schools that lasted for 35 years. He felt privileged to teach Jesus’ lambs about all the things Jesus did for them and how to talk to Him. They in turn blessed him with their insights and Faith. Through Jesus, he touched and was touched by many. At the age of 91, Emil went to Heaven to have eternal life with his Lord & Savior. He is preceded in death by his lovely Ruby (Niewald), his parents Emil & Esther Hoehne, his brothers Kenneth & Marvin Hoehne and his sister-in-law & Ruby’s twin sister, Ruth (Niewald) Hoehne. Emil is survived by his sons, Gary (Sandy) Hoehne & Mark (Wanda) Hoehne and his grandchildren Andrew, Lauren & Kaitlyn, his sister Jean (David) Hinz & brother Glenn (Nancy) Hoehne and cousins, nieces, & nephews who will miss him dearly as will many friends and brothers & sisters in the family of Christ.
