HANS MARKWARTH Obituary

MARKWARTH, Hans Richard Age 84, passed away peacefully at home on Monday, July 1, 2019. Hans was born on August 25, 1934 in Somerville to the late Hans and Jennie (DeGregorio) Markwarth.

Loving papa to his 10 grandchildren, Ashley, Michael, Amanda, Melissa, Elizabeth, Richard Hans, Brianna, Joseph, Jenna, and Matthew Markwarth. Devoted brother of sister Ann White, brother Ronald and wife Jenny Markwarth, and sister-in-law Gertrude McNamara-Caruso. Generous and loving role model to many nieces, nephews, and close friends. Hans was a veteran of the Korean War, past Commander of the Disabled American Veterans, and a longtime resident of Arlington for 51 years. He enjoyed traveling, but was happiest when surrounded by family and friends poolside at his home.
