I am writing this in memory of Klaus Trampe. I have known Klaus and his wife Rita from when I was a young boy. Klaus was a good family man, and had made great accomplishments in his life. He was a self-made man running his own business for many years with his wife Rita by his side, and even with his busy life, he still had time to raise his children (Bruce and Karen). I remember him as a stern but fair man with great family values, always putting family first. I was lucky enough to grow up with his son Bruce to whom we had become close friends. I have great memories growing up with the whole Trampe family. Unfortunately as time goes by, people drift apart but I will always have my memories which cannot be taken away. Rest in peace Klaus and thank you for being apart of my life and giving me great memories of growing up with the Trampe family. I hope you and Rita are together again. God bless with my deepest condolences. From an old friend. Robert Kussmann and family. - Posted by: Robert Kussmann (Friend) on: Dec 26, 2020

Dad, it's been a little over two weeks since we lost you. I look at your picture with your infectious smile and caring eyes and it makes me wonder if you're still watching over me as you always did from far or near. It brings a tear to my eye as I reflect back on all the great memories that were made with such wonderful parents. I can't thank you enough for always pushing me to be the best that I can be and to never give up. I read through the comments and I so much agree that you were a generous, sensitive, kind heated man. May you rest in peace knowing that you were a great father, a father that taught me to be proud and independent while knowing that I could always count on you if I needed you. You and Mom will be missed and never forgotten. We will meet again, until then...I love you dad! - Posted by: Bruce (Son) on: Sep 23, 2020

My condolences to family & friends of Klaus; he was a very gifted man. I met him in 1994 and we performed together with Rita in a number of places; it was a great time of it. He always gave it his best in life and it showed in his accomplishments. He loved his wife and children and after disaster happened with Rita passing on he met, fell in love with his new wife Ghislaine Lavergne Trampe. All of Klaus's people, he owns a corner of our hearts. The hardest thing to do in life, is to say goodbye to a loved one, since it is always too soon. As has always been with the Faith; there was once upon a time and then it becomes, we will see you later. - Posted by: Frank (Friend) on: Sep 13, 2020
