reveals hidden treasure.
A few years ago,while trying to help clean out my Grandparent's
garage, I came across several boxes full of Hans Georg's stuff.
Granny let me look through it briefly,put my name on it and hid
it back in the garage again. After the painstaking process of
cleaning out their house since they passed,I began to organize
everything we could find of Hans' stuff and I am slowly
assembling this website (while I learn how to use the computer)
as a resource for information on the life and times of Hans Georg.

Donations of photos,artifacts,stories etc.

seek donations for conservatory work

and research material pertaining to Hans'
life.
