Friedrich HC Nungesser

Nungesser, Friedrich H.C.

Our dearly beloved Fred, Age 89, went to be with the Lord, May 26th, 2023. He was preceded in death by his parents, Fritz and Elizabeth, sister Irmgard, brother Rainer and grandson Cody. 

Fred was born on April 11, 1934 in Darmstadt, Germany. 

In 1951 Fred came to the United States as a foreign exchange student to Iowa, where he gained a whole new family with the Burgers. He returned to Germany where he worked in the family business and traveled until 1961 when he married Sibylle (nee VonKoeppen) and moved to Minnesota where he enrolled in the Electronic Engineering Program at Dunwoody. His entrepreneurial spirit led him to start Northstar Homes, which he ran successfully for many years. He then worked at TL Systems in Crystal where he was part owner until his retirement in 1996.  Soon after, he started a Christmas tree farm, which allowed him to spend time on his tractor that he loved. Until recently, Fred continued to volunteer with his church, the Gideons and Bible for Missions.

Fred is survived by loving wife, Sibylle; sons, Fred (Jill), Glen (Missy); grandchildren, Alexandra (Pascaul), Drew (Brittany), Kaitlin and Sophie; great grandchildren, Elijah and Brecken.

Services will be held at Refuge Church in Zimmerman, Wednesday, May 31st, 2023 with visitation at 11AM, Service at 11:30 AM with luncheon following. 

Memorials will be donated to Bibles for Missions. Arr. Dare’s Funeral Home 763-441-1212 www.daresfuneralhome.com
