Age 82 years
Passed away on April 1, 2010. He had been very ill and in the hospital for several months. It was his and Mom/Oma’s desire for him to come home, so on the morning of April 1st he came back to the house which he had built with his own hands as a young man, and had moved into with his young bride and their first baby in 1954. Shortly after coming back home, with his bride at his side, he closed his eyes a final time on earth, and in her words, went home for the second time that day.
