I just learned of Dieter's passing. My sincere condolences to his family. When Dieter and Guenther came to Virginia, Mn., I was asked by our English teacher to help them with the English language and we would go through magazines and I would try to help them understand the ads and articles. He was always friendly and a very nice person. He will be missed.

Dieter was a classmate of mine. Years ago, my penpal from Germany visited me, and Dieter and Guenther joined us for a nice visit. He was such a nice person.

I am so sorry to hear of your loss; I was a one of Diester's high school classmates in Virginia, MN. Although, he wasn't a close friend of mine, I remember him as a courteous, friendly, handsome and serious young man. I do hope he had a good life; it appears he left many loved ones behind.

Please accept my sympathy. I was a high school classmate of Dieter and Guenter. They both had stories that we all should have heard. I only know that I did not, and I am sorry for that.
