Peter H. Schwarzer

Peter H. Schwarzer born in Striegau, Germany immigrated to Canada in 1951 with his future wife Gertrude Alms (6/1928 - 11/2006). In 1952, they married in Vancouver, B.C. and had two children, Conni and Peter. In 1958, the family immigrated to Portland and became American citizens (9/1963). Together Peter and Gertrude lived an incredible life; enduring the ending days of WWII as teenagers, starting a new life in a remote logging camp in BC and finally building a beautiful house and garden in Tigard with their children. Peter was a proud member of IBEW local 48 and retired after over 30 years from Frahler Electric in 1991.
