If the content of this memorial appears a little inadequate at first, this is most certainly not due to lack of information. On the contrary, the wealth of detail is so overwhelming that I couldn't pick just the perfect point at which to start. The first few thousand words are stated in the wonderful photos I hold most dear to my heart - and each and every one of you will hold your very own selection. Ultimately, it will be an accumulation of the stories, photographs, thoughts, feelings, experiences, memories . . . that will turn each added chapter of this memorial into a beautiful biography for each and every one of us to hold dear for all our years to come, and those after us. With love to all of my family, but for the most part, my inspiration, meine liebe Oma.
