grandmother were always delightful
company.
Having survived two world wars,
Germany's diastrous depression,
and the surrendering of his farm and
other property to the communists in
East Germany, Opa was a man who
appreciated what he had He taught
respect for work and thrift. Not even
a bent, rusty old nail was thrown
away. He would carefully and
methodically straighten each one
One day, when I was just a small boy,
he taught me how to do the same,
and I’ve been doing it ever since. In
fact, stange as it may be, each old,
bent and rusty nail stands as a
monument to my beloved grand
father.

little it happened tot be Opa taught
respect for life and work. His actions
were a constant testimony to his
integrity and beliefs. There wao no

And even though we suffered a loss
when he left this life, we are rich

and cutting other foreign material prior to its entering the impeller The
impeller produces a tremendous amount of pressure discharging
