Please accept my condolences after I read Mr. Oesterle's obituary in the Republican Herald (Pottsville, PA, USA) online newspaper. I worked with Peter at Green's Communications for many years & knew how close the Oesterle family was. Peter's stories of the family's history was always interesting. I would like to think it's comforting to all that there are new Oesterle generations to carry on the family's name & history.
Oh Onkel Juergen We are so sad to hear of your passing I will always remember your smiling face and laugh. I like so many others remember all the grown up parties where us kids would play in your basement or backyard at Terra Cotta. Your smile always got brighter as the evening went on. Along with my mom we loved coming to visit all of you. My mother was always happy to visit you and Tante Brunhilda in Orillia. She always felt so welcome. She especially loved when you would nod at the back door meaning it was time for a puff :) Now you both can puff together once again.
I also remember when you took me under your wing and offered me my first job Chromolox. I was so excited to work there. It was just hard calling you Hans instead of Onkel Juergen :) I slipped up a few times.
I’m so happy you could see all of your family before you passed. I know how important they are to you. You have touched many lives and we will never forget you. X0X0
On behalf of my family, please accept our most heartfelt condolences on the passing of my dear Onkel Juergen.
My childhood memories are full of family get togethers and merriment. I will always remember Onkel Juergen’s kindness and gentleness with me growing up. God bless you Onkel Juergen.
