Annemarie K\u00fcnzel from Wolmirstedt celebrated a special birthday. The elderly woman has turned 90. She is clearly comfortable with her age; she still takes care of her own apartment, cooks, bakes, and cleans. Her family always knows they can count on Annemarie K\u00fcnzel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her son Thomas and daughter Evelyn are always there for her, as are the four grandchildren and two great-grandchildren who have since joined the family. \u201cMy grandchildren always come over on Sundays to help me in the garden or with housework\u2014I can always count on them,\u201d says the cheerful Wolmirstedt resident. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

She moved to the city in 1982, worked for many years as a staff manager at the district construction company, and, together with her late husband, ran an income tax assistance association, through which she is known to many residents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the occasion of his 90th birthday, Wolmirstedt\u2019s mayor, Mike Steffens, also offered his congratulations and presented him with a gift and a certificate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The town of Wolmirstedt wishes Ms. K\u00fcnzel all the best and good health!<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

What keeps you young once you\u2019ve reached the age of 90? Franz Haiduk is convinced it\u2019s definitely family. The Wolmirstedt resident should know\u2014he has 3 children, 8 grandchildren, and 11 great-grandchildren. And of course, they were all there to celebrate this very special birthday\u2014the big 90\u2014with him. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Franz Haiduk and his family came to Germany in 1966 and moved to Zielitz in 1973, where the trained miner began working at the potash mine that had just opened. His wife also worked there. The couple worked opposite shifts so that someone would always be home with the children. \u201cIt was exhausting at times, but it was a really great time,\u201d recall Franz Haiduk and his wife. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2006, the couple moved to Wolmirstedt so they could have doctors, shopping, and other amenities more conveniently located right on their doorstep. Wolmirstedt\u2019s mayor, Mike Steffens, saw for himself on the honoree\u2019s 90th birthday that family is what matters most to him. He stopped by with a gift and a certificate and offered his heartfelt congratulations to Franz Haiduk. Franz showed the mayor all the family photos on the wall and explained that he and his wife would continue to visit their children and grandchildren for as long as they possibly could. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With such a strong sense of family, there\u2019s certainly no room for boredom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The town of Wolmirstedt extends its heartfelt congratulations and wishes Mr. Haiduk good health!<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
