Cornelius Engelkes Obituary

We are sad to announce that on February 24, 2023 we had to say goodbye to Cornelius Engelkes (La Porte City, Iowa), born in Parkersburg, Iowa. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.

He was loved and cherished by many people including: his parents, Cornelius William and Clara Engelkes (Smit); his wife Betty Schmucker of LaPorte City; his children, Susan Levine of Lawrenceville, GA, Joe Engelkes (Rosie) of Cedar Falls, Pat Wood (Bob) of LaPorte City and Chuck Engelkes of LaPorte City; his siblings, Anna Mae Schnucker, Harold, John and Carroll "Jimmy" Engelkes; and his son-in-law Eric Levine. He was also cherished by 9 grandchildren and 16 great-grandchildren; 2 step-grandchildren; 4 step-great-grandchildren.

Memorials may be made in Wilbur's name to your local Lions Club.
