We’ll miss our morning view of Lothar going up his driveway to fetch his morning paper, surveying his domain and neighbourhood … Boris in tow. We have you in our thoughts as you mourn him, your husband and father … this kind, caring and gentle man. We’re so sorry for your loss.

It was very sad to receive the news of Lothar a few days ago. I did not personally know him but I was the lucky teacher who taught his children .Whenever I would run into Nenette at the local Bolton stores, the conversation always was about family.He must have been a wonderful husband and dad from the conversations we had.
My heart goes out to you Tobi, Lorena and Nenette.
Sincere condolences

Dear Naneth and family. We were so sorry to hear your sad news today. Lothar was such a lovely, gentle soul. My father so enjoyed chatting with him when he would visit us over the years. They had many stories together. Danny and I so appreciated the time he took to talk about Germany with our daughter Lindsey. It was always a pleasure to stop and chat as he made his regular walk around the neighbourhood. Please know that you are all in our hearts and prayers. May your many memories bring you peace.
Kathleen and Ian Anderson
Sincere condolences to the family. We will remember Lothar as a kind and generous man, who always took time to stop for a chat on his daily walk, and often even “hand delivered” the newspaper from the end of the driveway! He had a genuine warmth and concern, and we enjoyed our shared stories of children and grandchildren. May you cherish the memories.
Lani & Ralph Cracco
Ate Naneth & Family. Although no words can take away the sorrow that you bare. May it be comforting to you to know that others care.

So sorry to hear of Lothar’s passing. It was always good to chat to him when he did his daily walk around Palmer Circle and good to have you both as our back garden neighbors. Please pass along our condolences to the girls as well. Thinking of you Naneth at this sad time.
