Inpatient Services Nursing Assistant Bryan Schroeder has been named the first recipient of Monroe Clinic’s BEE Award. Schroeder has been a member of the Monroe Clinc team for two years.

Bryan was nominated by Inpatient Services nurse Janet Fenley. Her nomination shared that “there are so many reasons Bryan deserves this award, but one situation sticks out most. Bryan drove to Walmart after his shift one night to buy personal care items for a patient who was a long-haul truck driver from Utah. This kind act received thanks from the patient and his wife back home. Bryan didn’t need to do this, but he saw someone in need and took action – something he does every day on the Inpatient floor.”

Many of Bryan’s coworkers and family attended his BEE Award ceremony on the Inpatient floor of the hospital. Among those in attendance were Bryan’s fiancé and fellow Monroe Clinic Nursing Assistant Sarah Kind and Bryan’s father, Eric Schroeder, who is a CT Technologist at Monroe Clinic.

The BEE Award was created to recognize any non-nursing staff member who demonstrates excellent quality care, extraordinary compassion, focus on the patient and the patient’s needs and effective collaboration with other members on the patient-care team.

Monroe Clinic asks the community to help spotlight the extraordinary contributions of our staff, like Bryan, by nomiCOURTESY PHOTO Brodhead Independent-Register nating them for the BEE Award. Nomination forms are available at Monroe Clinic Bryan Schroder with Jo Ann Steuri, Monroe Clinic Director of Inpatient greeter’s desks and online at www.mon- Services, (left) and Stacie Natter, Monroe Clinic Coach of Inpatient Services, (right) after Bryan received the BEE Award on Jan. 3. roeclinic.org/beeaward.

DL Newcomer Funeral Home undergoes ownership transition On July 2, 2019, Jarod and Tania Williams purchased the DL Newcomer Funeral Home in Brodhead. As you may have heard from family or friends that the business has transitioned. It is true. Dan and Kari Newcomer have moved into semi-retirement, but will remain in Brodhead and still help when needed. Jarod, his wife, and son will be running the day to day operations as a family. As in any transition, we have received some questions.

Nothing is fundamentally changing.

There will be no formal name change, as the DL Newcomer Funeral Home name has been a well established name in the community since 1930. The business has transitioned seamlessly and families we have served didn’t even know the difference until we tell them of the new ownership. Jarod will be meeting the families to make funeral arrangements just as Dan did in the past. He has been a licensed funeral director in Illinois and Wisconsin since 1998, a certified crematory operator and a licensed insurance agent for advance planning purposes. His son Brock is an apprentice funeral director. Jarod and his wife Tania are high school sweet hearts that graduated from Orangeville and have family in the Dakota, Durand and Albany areas…. They soon will be

building a new home and moving to Brodhead. Jarod says, “It is good to back into our home area!”.

Dan’s father, Dwight L. Newcomer, started in the funeral business in Brodhead, 1930. At that time, he opened the Newcomer Funeral Home at the 602 10th Street location. Daniel attained his license in 1967. While attending mortuary school, Daniel had been associated with the Bruskiewitz Funeral Home,Milwaukee, Frautschi Funeral Home, currently Cress Funeral Home, Madison, and returned to Brodhead in 1971 to join
