August 2015
When Roger was writing his books about the LDS Church in Germany during WWII we got to know Walter and Erna Hirschmann in Munich. We have stayed with them many times, even taking family members and friends to visit them. Sadly, Walter passed away in 2013. He was an engineer so they were able to have a beautiful home on the outskirts of Munich.
Here are Jeanne and Marolyn in 2011 at the Hirschmann's.
Here is a picture from 2011 with the beautiful flower beds in the front yard.
This year we visited Erna and were shocked by the new front yard.
Her son decided to sell that part of the property so that a twin home could be built.
He sold the backyard as well, but it hasn't been destroyed yet.
View from the front door to the new house.
Erna still works in her beautiful flower beds. Here is her back patio.
She said the flowers look terrible this year because of the dry summer.
I wish my flowerbeds looked this terrible!
I am crying my eyes out for Erna, Her home was so beautiful. Can you imagine homes in your front and back yards? She must be so sad. Her beautiful flowers defined the Hirschmanns. Wahhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
