I am interested in the last names Pinna, Benning, Kroetsch, Finazzo, and Kroetch.

I want to build a place where my son can meet his great-grandparents. My grandmother Marian Joyce (Benning) Kroetch always wanted to meet her great-grandchildren, but she died just a handful of years before my son's birth.
