Albrecht Bienzle, passed away peacefully last week, at 92, after a long and eventful life. As a farmer in Germany, Albrecht immigrated to Harrow, Ontario in 1980 to farm, and eventually moved to Puslinch, where he continued to farm for the last 21 years. He was predeceased by his wife Felicitas in 2014. Albrecht was devoted to his family consisting of children Christoph (Shawnee), Rosemarie (Uli), Felix (Susan), Dorothee (Lev) and Albrecht (Lilo), grandchildren Amanda, Anna, Maria, Jaspar and Katya, and great-grandchildren Riley and Finn Patrick.
He will be remembered for his kindness, his love of farming and forestry, his efforts of planting and nurturing thousands of trees, and for his love of Scrabble.
At his wish, there will be no service. As expressions of sympathy, The Nature Conservancy of Canada or Dying with Dignity would welcome donations in his name.
