NORTH HAMPTON - Dietrich "Dieter" Ebert passed away at home Saturday, Aug. 15, 2020 after a four-month struggle with a brain tumor. He was born on Sept. 11, 1941 in Munich, Germany where he was raised and educated.

Dieter is survived by his wife of 47 years and best friend, Kathie (Andrews) Ebert, his son Dieter and Rachel (Lupoli) of North Hampton, his daughter, Renata and Noah Baieve of San Diego, his siblings, Baebel, Eva, Hermann and Hans Heinz, all living in Germany. He will always be OPA to his cherished grandchildren, Alexa and Tyler Ebert of North Hampton. Dieter is predeceased by his parents Hans and Paula Ebert and in-laws Theodore and Marion Andrews.

Dieter met and fell in love with Kathie Andrews in 1969 in Munich and were married in 1972 in Wolfratshausen, Germany. They crossed the Atlantic Ocean on a container freighter in 1973 and settled in North Hampton.

Dieter was a Mechanical Engineer and worked for MAN and a technical institute in Germany. In the U.S., he worked for Hampton Machine, Kingston Warren and Profile Metal Forming where he was still employed as a consultant.

Dieter was passionate about energy conservation, alternative energy sources and physical fitness. He was an innovator and inventor, always searching for a better resolution to everyday problems.

Dieter treasured every second of his time spent at the family camp on Ossipee Lake, swimming, water skiing, sailing, kayaking, hiking and snow skiing. He was a kind and gentle soul who will be missed by all who knew him.

The Meister was my friend and mentor when I was young. He made me angry as he created an engineer of me from a box maker. The principals he taught me about engineering and design lead to my great success in my work life. He also thought me some valued principals of life I keep to this day. I have been away for some time and did not know of his passing. On the few occasions when he spoke of his personal life the sentence always bespoke of you first. Dieter loved you and your family above all else. I miss him.

Kathie,
While Dieter may not walk this green earth, the days he spent here were precious. The life he lived and the people he touched will be remembered. Just know he's with you always and that you two will meet again.

Dieter was a wonderful person. He was a dear friend of mine and I can't imagine not seeing him again. Dieter was the type of person, you thought would live forever. Mary, Bill and I can all look up at him and picture the fun times we had sharing our birthday's together and see his nice smile looking down at us. He will always be in our hearts and we will miss him very much.
Rest In Peace Dieter.
