On April 24, 2024, Harald Langer passed away at the age of 54. Born in Trier, Germany on March 7, 1970 to parents Erwin and Anna Langer. At the age of 27, he met the love of his life, Erica Najera-Ortiz in Mexico. The two united their love in marriage in 1999 and soon after welcomed their eldest son Fernando Langer. The young family immigrated to Chicago, IL where Harald pursued his lifelong passion of engineering. Here, he would help open Petronik Automation, Inc. as the vice president. Continuing his career, they moved to New Jersey where they would be blessed with two more sons, Antonio and Sebastian Langer in 2002 and 2004. In 2005 the family settled in Houston, Texas where he would raise his family and join S&B Engineers and Constructors as a Control System Engineer. Harald quickly became a distinguished and respected member of the community through his dedication to Saint Paul the Apostle Catholic Church, the Knights of Columbus, and S&B Engineers where he worked for more than 17 years. Harald was a beacon of light that continues to shine through those whose lives he impacted. Above all, he was known for his love and dedication to God, family, and friends.
He was preceded in death by his parents Erwin Langer and Anna Langer; and his older sister, Birgit Langer.
He is survived by his wife, Erica Najera; his children, Fernando Langer, Antonio Langer, and Sebastian Langer; his brother Guenther Langer, and his sister Andrea Langer.
