Goodbye, Oma (Patreon)

Oma, I’ll miss you forever. I’m so lucky to have known you.

The strongest woman who has ever lived; survived having her homes bombed multiple times in Berlin during the war, raising 4 kids on her own in a country where she barely spoke the language, and so much more. 95 years of kicking ass. Legendary. You’ll never be forgotten.

Oma was my wife’s mom’s mom, but she took me on as family from the moment she met me. I’m so thankful to have had her in my life. Raise a beer or some schnapps in her honor (or a rum and coke, a late-in-life favorite of hers). PROST! Hail Oma!
