Heinrich Severloh 1908-1945
Although he died at the age of 37 he lived a full life beginning in June 1908. Heinrich met his wife, Evelyn, in 1932 and they were married a year later. Followed shortly by their children, Dirke, Alexander and Lena who inspired him to join the army. Heinrich wanted his children to grow up in a time of peace and happiness instead of the destruction and decay that the war brought to Germany. He always fought for what he believed in, that's why he died defending Germany, the country he loved to the end.
He was believed to have been shot down in combat with American troops who ambushed their battalion in the middle of the night. He honorably fought to defend himself and even saved the life of another soldier, costing him his life. Although he died for a failed cause, Germany is now able to rebuild itself from the destruction that has now ended, so his wishes were granted. His family believes that he is a guardian angel for Germany and their family. Heinrich Severloh was a beloved husband, father, and friend to all, he will always be remembered in the hearts of the people who knew him and his loving attitude.
