  1. My deepest condolences to the Kochenberger family. Jerry was the true epitome of matriarch to a wonderful family. All of you, her family have had great success in life, but more importantly, you are loved and respected by many, giving back to pueblo and those who need your kindness and joy for life.

  2. To My Dear Friends in Christ,

    So sorry to hear of mom Koch’s passing. Affectionately known as Gerry Govan to Kirk and me. I have fond memories of the sleep overs, breakfasts and pizza’s. She was a special lady that always made me feel like a part of the family.

    She is at peace resting with our heavingly father. She finished the race and her legacy lives in each of you.

    Gods Blessings and Love,

    Dave, Christie, Kaylee & Matt Shaddy

  6. It’s been many years since I last saw Mrs. Kochenberger, but I will always remember her. I went to Lincoln with Sally, and I visited the house several times. She was so kind to me. I remember your father, too. I’d like to send my condolences to Sally and the rest of the family. I lost my mom last year, and I know what a difficult time this is. With warm regards, Julie (Bornschein) Feuerbacher
