Not sure what to say?

Hans was a wonderful thoughtful man.

We enjoyed serving with Hans on the Good Shepherd usher team for many years. He wasn't one for small talk, but had a great sense of humor, and always did what needed to be done. We'll miss him.

It has been a great blessing to have shared family times through the years with Hans and Gretchen. They were great to be around!

Hans always had a quiet, yet powerful presence. He inspired tremendous admiration and respect. He was always easy to talk to, always down to earth. He had an aura of dignity about him that made him so very special.

Thank you, Pete, Ann, and Matt, for all the wonderful years of family times in your home. Our memories are forever.
