Audrey, Greg and the rest of the Oldenburg family I am so sorry for the loss of Hans. He was a good Christian man, a great husband and Father. He will be missed. I remember just last summer stopping in to talk with him at his home in St.Paul. We sat and talked for over an hour about our kids, grandkids and life. I will miss Hans, my friend. Sincerely, Martin Heumann

My sympathies to Aunt Audrey, Cousins Greg, April, and Jeff; my father, Earl and all those touched by my Uncle Hans' passing.

I'll always remember summers spent in Minnesota as a child visiting the kindest folks in the world. They talked a little funny there...and those Smorgasbords were awesome!

My second son is named, Hans-Ethan, and I know they both got a kick out of that. Grandfather Hans would have chuckled too.

Rest in peace, Uncle Hans.

Hans will be deeply missed. I miss talking with him over the hedge when the weather was nice, seeing he and Audrey on their walks, and listening to him firing up his snowblower to clear the sidewalk up and down the block. Kind and gentle, but not afraid to share an opinion. We could use a few more Hans' in the world.

Hans was one of the finest men I'll ever have the privilege to know.
