About Hans Heinrich von Tiesenhausen

- https://tiesenhausen.de/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/Familienbrief_20... Hans Heinrich Freiherr v.Tiesenhausen, the senior of our large family, died July 8, 2020 in Vancouver, Canada age 106. He was the third son of the wellknown art nouveau architect Gerhard v.Tiesenhausen, who died only two years after Hans Heinrich was born in an accident in Southern Russia. With her three sons, the mother moved to Germany to join her family. During the second world war Hans Heinrich, like his two brothers, became an officer in the Army and after the war he studied to become an interior architect. In 1953 he emigrated to Canada joining his brother Hans Dietrich, called Dietz, who had learned to love Canada during his time as prisoner of war. Hans Heinrich was the anchor of our family association in Canada, kept regular contact with Europe and reported all relevant family matters. He participated in family reunions whenever possible. Our condolences together with our hope of continuation of ongoing reports of Canadian family matters go to his daughter Gabrielle and his son Hans Christian.
