Manfred Gremm Obituary

MANFRED GREMM Manfred Eric Gremm, 68, of Las Vegas, passed away Saturday, Feb. 17, 2007, after a seven year struggle with liver disease. He was a master cabinet maker who owned a small manufacturing company, Cabinet Systems since 1974. Manfred was born and raised in Germany immigrating to America in 1957. He spent one year in Pennsylvania before moving to Las Vegas in 1959 with his sister and brother-in-law, Dennie and Charles Kilduff. Manfred was an expert hunter and outdoorsman traveling around the world for new adventures. He especially liked to travel to Argentina and Baja California. His favorite place to practice target shooting on Sunday mornings were the hills behind Indian Springs. Manfred also had an interest in off road racing. You could spot him watching his two sons, Pascal and Andre race their truck in several SNORE races. Several times in his life, he took old Volkswagens and converted them into Dune Buggies. Manfred was a proud Lifetime member of the National Rifle Association, Ducks Unlimited, and Desert Sportsman's Rifle & Pistol Club, Inc. Manfred was preceded in death by his parents, Alfred and Elizabeth Gremm; and his brothers, Alfred and Hermann Gremm. He is survived by his wife, Kathleen Gremm; his sons, Pascal and Andre Gremm; daughter, Nadine Gremm; sister, Dennie Kilduff; brother, Horst Gremm; nephews, Jan and Mark Kilduff; and his three grandchildren. Services will be at 3 p.m. Friday, Feb. 23, at Palm Mortuary, 1600 S. Jones Blvd., at Oakey. Since Manfred fought hemophilia all his life, donations may be made in his memory to the Hemophilia Foundation, P.O. Box 90158, Henderson, NV 89009.

I just learned of this. It has been a while, but I should say a few things.
I worked for Manfred for about a year and a half when I was 19, around 1964. We built the cabinets and display cases for The Audiophile Center and Christianson's Jewelers at 1050 Sahara Ave. We also built a room on the back of his sister's house and a few other minor jobs.
I enjoyed working for Manfred very much. It was one of the best jobs I had in my young life. He was a consummate professional and knew his business thoroughly. Even though it was not an official status, I considered myself his apprentice and have always felt proud to have worked for him.
He was a good-natured man, and during the time I worked for him, I do not recall there was ever a harsh word. I remember that whenever something went wrong, he had a favorite expression that he would exclaim with childlike enthusiasm: "Machine Kapute!!!"
Thank you Manfred.
