On September 7, 2022 Hans passed into Eternity just weeks away from the age of 100 years. Throughout his life, in good or hard times, he was sustained by his Christian faith and we are comforted in knowing that he is now with the Lord. Hans was a logical thinker, curious and intrigued by the functionality of things. This stood him in good stead while working in mechanical engineering. Loving and beloved husband of Helga (nee Mueller) for 61 years. Dear and cherished father of Patricia, his devoted daughter. Survived by his sister, Ingeborg Himmrich in B.C. and relatives in Germany. Heartfelt thanks to the caring staff at Niagara Ina Grafton Gage Village during his 6 year stay and the Palliative Team of NHS - St. Catharines Site.
Life is Real
Life is earnest
And the grave
Is not its goal;
'Dust thou art
To Dust returnest'
Was not spoken
Of the Soul
________________
Eye has not seen
Ear has not heard
Nor mind conceived
What the Lord
Has prepared for
Those who love Him
In Paradisum
