They have one son together, Keith W. Gundlach. Erma Gundlach lives to be 104 years old. * * * Bio written for her in 1999, a year before her death: Erma Gundlach is 103 years old and she grew up in a house her grandfather had built to accommodate two families. Her parents lived in part of the house and the grandparents lived in the other part. Erma was born August 28, 1896 in that house, which was on a farm one and one half miles from Lamont, Iowa. her parents were john H. and Anna (Ripke) Brown. Erma's grandfather Brown had come to Lamont from Massachusetts, built a house, and returned to Massachusetts to get his family. By the time he returned to Iowa, the wind had blown the house down. The two family house was a second attempt at house building. Although her grandfather Brown died when Erma was three, she remembers her grandmother living in the grandparents' part of the family home. Erma had two older sisters, Delpha and Freeda. An uncle, Albert Ripke, drove Erma and her sisters to school in Lamont in a horse and buggy. In the winter time it was by horse and cutter, a very uncomfortable means of transportation. Erma and her sisters attended the public school in Lamont and graduated from Lamont High School. Erma came to Waterloo in 1923. She was married to Grover Gundlach. the had one son Keith who lived in the Chicago area and died about seven years ago. Erma's daughter-in-law Celeste still lives in the Chicago area. Keith and Celeste had a son and a daughter and they each have two sons, so Erma as four great-grandsons. Errma worked as a teller at Waterloo Savings Bank in downtown Waterloo for many years. After she retired in 1960, she continued to work there part time for ten more years. She lived in an apartment at 620 West 3rd Street in Waterloo for many years and could walk to work at the bank from home. Erma joined Central Christian Church, then located on West 4th Street, when she moved to Waterloo and has been a member of that congregation ever since. Central Christian moved to a new location on Kimball Avenue a number of years ago. Erma has lived at the Lutheran Home since January of 1995.
