Til, as he was known by his friends, worked in a variety of fields, including his own commercial telephone installation business and working as a building supervisor at various condo complexes in Florida.

These jobs gave him the opportunity to meet and impact the lives of a wide variety of people with his dry sense of humor and his love of helping people. Til was a loyal and dependable friend to those who knew him well. He tried to remember everyone’s name as he went about his work, because each and everyone of his friends were important to him.

He enjoyed his friends, antiques, travel, his plants, animals and most of all being proud of doing a good job at whatever task he undertook.

Til is survived by many friends and family in the United States and Germany; his long timefriend Jim Boggess, and his traveling companion, best friend, and fellow antiques shopper:Thomas Schaefer.
