Vonnie Schriml passed away shortly after midnight on January 16, 2023 just seven short months after the loss of her devoted husband of 53 years, Steven J. Schriml. She was 79. Vonnie was born in central Kentucky and spent her school years in suburban Cincinnati, graduating from Woodward High School in 1961. She was a determined person who launched her own accounting firm in the late 70s, when it was still difficult for women to get small business loans. Over the next 45 years, she earned an excellent reputation for her deep knowledge, keen business sense and unflinching delivery during difficult conversations.
Her family all believes she just could not bear the loss of her dear husband, Steve. Vonnie and "her better half" as she called him, shared a strong and beautiful devotion to each other. They enjoyed travel and many outings together, almost as much as they enjoyed staying in and watching really-old movies. In their later years, he insisted on driving her everywhere she went, up until he was no longer able. They would occasionally take a detour to watch planes take off and land at the airport.
Vonnie was most definitely the glue of her family. She is survived by her children: Lisa Russell (Steven Temnikar), Steven L. (Karen) Schriml and Krista Schriml, nine grandchildren: Mark Thomas, Michael Thomas, Danny Rigney, Andrew Schriml, Mary Kate (Sam) Mahle, Thomas Schriml, Kevin Schriml, Elizabeth Schriml, and Emily Schriml, as well as five great-grandchildren: Kaylee, Alyssa, Carson, Brayden, Mackenzie and Hudson.
She will be greatly missed.
