Arlin Max Bornschlegl, Sr.
“Max” Bornschlegl passed into eternal rest on Aug. 13, 2015, at home in York attended by loving family.
Max was born on June 8, 1932, to John and Ella (Matthies) Bornschlegl at home in rural Ohiowa. He was baptized at St. John’s Lutheran Church in Ohiowa. He graduated from Ohiowa Public High School. On June 8, 1969, Max married Beverly Ann Renneke in Mankato, Minn.
Faith and family were the focus of Max’s daily life; he held positions of service and leadership at Grace Lutheran Church in Geneva and over 20 years as church financial secretary at Bethel Lutheran Church in York.
