THE SEBEWA RECOLLECTOR, Bulletin of the Sebewa Center Association, Volume 31, December 1995, Number 3:
“GIERMAN:
   ROBERT WILFRED GIERMAN, our founder, died Saturday, November 11, 1995, age 
86 years, 3 months, and 19 days.  We could say many things about this man who 
touched so many lives, but in the end we must print his story the way he 
wanted it.  (This entire issue (Volume 31, Number 3) is dedicated to the 
telling of his story---his autobiography ~ lib)
   In the July 1989 issue for his 80th birthday we wrote:  “Probably no-one 
can really succeed him as Editor, because The Recollector is Wilfred and 
Wilfred is The Recollector”.
   In June 1986, after he stood on an upright piano while painting the 
schoolhouse ceiling, fell on his head and broke four vertebrae, we 
wrote:  “Robert Wilfred Gierman is not dead and not yet perfect”.
   Today he reached perfection!  Bill Davis will scatter his ashes at 
Sunshine.  After his own telling of his story, we have included excerpts from 
various writers on that occasion of his 80th birthday.”
