Carl W. Repp, 1900–2004

Carl W. Repp was my maternal grandfather. He lived in Huntington, Indiana almost all of his life. I grew up mostly in Nevada, so I didn't know him as well as I might have. I got to know him a little better when we moved to Iowa, because we would see him a couple of times a year.

103 years old, and hardly sick a day in his life. Still driving when he was 98. Kept most of his faculties until just last year. Not a bad run, eh?

Here's to you, Grandpa.
