Nora Katheryn Kirchner Siedenburg was born Easter Sunday, April 20, 1930 to Carl and Nora (Martin) Kirchner on the family farm in Cooper County, Missouri. Since she was born on Easter Sunday her Father nick-named her "Bunny" which was shortened to Bun after High School. She attended the Washington School of Clark's Fork and graduated from Boonville High School in 1948. During her adolescent years her parents purchased a second farm near Clark's Fork where she and her sisters and brother labored alongside their parents. Bun was married to Arthur H. Siedenburg by Rev. Clifford Bliss at the Siedenburg family farm near Lone Elm, Missouri on September 11, 1948. (The "New" Zion Lutheran Church building in Lone Elm was under construction at the time). Bun was Confirmed and Baptized on February 11, 1949 in the Zion Lutheran School House. In the fall of 1948 Bun and Art moved to Lone Elm where Art began working for his Uncle Henry Niebruegge as a clerk in the Lone Elm Store. In 1969 Bun and Art became owners of the store. Their friendly greeting to customers entering the store is still cherished today by many patrons. Art and Bun were generous with their support of many local events including sponsorship of the Lone Elm baseball team and annual Labor Day Turtle Race. They operated the general merchandise and animal feed businesses until 1990 when they closed the store. In 1990 Bun became employed by the IGA grocers in Boonville, Missouri and retired from full-time employment in 1996. She continued working part-time at the grocery store for many years.
Bun began teaching Sunday School at Zion Lutheran Church in 1956 and taught consecutively for three generations (over 55 years). She joined the Zion Altar Guild in 1966 and served for over 40 years. Bun was also an active member of the Lutheran Women's Missionary League. For many years Bun was involved in the Zion 4-H Club along with her children and was associated with the Cooper County Red Cross. Due to failing health Bun and Art moved into the Villa Marie Care Center in Jefferson City, Missouri in 2013. Bun enjoyed participating in almost every activity, social event and worship service at Villa Marie.
Bun is survived by Arthur, her husband and faithful friend for over 65 years; 2 sons, 7 grandchildren, 9 great grandchildren, two sisters and many nieces, nephews and friends.
Bun seemed happiest when her hands were in a flower bed or around the handle of a garden hoe. She loved to cook and enjoyed serving family and friends in her kitchen.
Her service to the Lord and her family is a tribute to her faith in God. She passed into heaven peacefully at her Villa Marie home, holding her husband's hand.
