DALE AND MARILYN [PAESL] SUKUP
Dale Laurence and Marilyn Elizabeth Sukup live on a farm eight miles
southwest of Verdigre. Their farm was originally homesteaded as a
timber claim by Dale’s great-grandmother, Marie Sukup, in 1885.
Dale was born living. His parents are Laurence and Helen
(Frank) Sukup. He has two sisters, Shirley Cederburg and Darlene
Costello, both of Norfolk, Nebraska.
Marilyn was born on living. Her parents are Marvin and Helen (Kral)
Paesl. She has two brothers, Joseph and Raymond Paesl, both of
Verdigre, and two sisters, Patricia Liska of Verdigre and Virginia
Grim of Wayne, Nebraska.
Dale and Marilyn attended Verdigre area schools and both graduated
from Verdigre High School.
After graduation Dale enlisted in the United States Army. He
completed basic training at Fort Riley, Kansas, and then was
permanently assigned to Fort Eustis, Virginia, where he was a
clerk-typist for the duration of his enlistment. After the service,
Dale returned to Verdigre to fulfill his dream of farming the land
his grandfather, Andrew Sukup, had homesteaded.
