Heinz's Story
I was born in Germany in 1946 in a city called Halle, which is in East Germany and was under the ruthless dictatorship of Stalin and the Gulag.
We migrated to New Jersey, USA in 1952 after our escape from East Germany. We lived for a while in West New York, NJ till we moved to North Bergen, NJ in 1958/1959.
I did attend North Bergen High School and graduated in 1965. Three months after my graduation I enlisted in the US Navy and served for four years and my bad luck prevented me from ever being deployed on a US Naval vessel. Why? My two brothers were also in the navy and they were on naval ships in the pacific at the time I was in and I got land locked for 4 years and making visits to Tennessee, Alaska...Expand for more
, and Florida.
I married Geraldine Peters in 1968 and we have two sons and they gave us three grand daughters.
We have also lived in Florida from 1972 till 2016 and now enjoy the warm weather as a resident in the State of Illinois.
Good to talk to you all and may your silver years be enjoyable especially if you have grandchildren.
If I learn how to move photos from my photo album to this site, I will submit 2 or 3 photos of the European Countries Geri and I visited in 2014. We made stops in 1o/11 countries and went to 42 major or secondary cities of those countries. We were in Europe for 88 days. A lot of these photos were taken while driving from one country/city to the next.
