When I started out in the work world right out of high school, I installed duct work for air conditioners in a lot of his houses that he built. His work was top notch and when he would visit the site and we would be working, he always took the time to visit with us. Fast forward 30 plus years, he built a home for me. That home was built just as solid as well. He also visited with me one on one while it was being built. Shows me what type of man he was. You will be missed, Mr. Thielmann.
Great man, I worked for his company in high school!
