Leo Yungfleisch, my grandfather


On 16 September 2017, my grandfather, Leo Aloysius Yungfleisch, passed away after fighting prostate cancer that had metastasized to his bones.[1] 
He was a wonderful man who loved his children and grandchildren very much. Weeks before his passing, despite the terrible pain that he was in, he knelt on the ground with his youngest grandchild and played cars with him.
I loved this man very much and I have created this blog to document his life story and the story of his parents and grandparents.
