My children are Susanne's 7th cousin. Her parents visited us in 2001. Her mother, Hildegard Neiss Conrad died February 22, 2002. I was able to visit her gravesite and say my goodbye. You can see she is in a very beautiful place. Susanne says a tombstone is now in place. |

Ludi (my 6th cousin) and Christina Neiss and their son Axel and wife Katja are owners of the Neiss Winery. They laugh when I tell them some Neiss Wine is kept on display shelves like trophies. |

| Beautiful Ulrike Neiss Wagner is the daughter of Ludi and Christina. Sorry I do not have a picture of her husband Klaus. Their daughter Charlotta stole my heart. | ||||

| I am hoping Ludi and Christina will visit me. They do not speak English so their children will have to come and interpret. How soon can you come? | ||||
| Susanne took me to a Wine Fest. It's similar to our carnivals but with wine. | ||||
