SUMMER 2015
GFS celebrates 60 years!
By Rich Reikowski
Marty Misbrener, whose involvement with the
soccer program spans nearly 60 years.
The Akron German Family Society’s 60th
Anniversary celebration began with a Catholic
Mass celebrated by Fr. David Misbrener. He
and his family have a long connected history
to the Akron German Family Society. After
Mass, Erika Leipold served as the evenings
Master of Ceremonies as she welcomed all
members, guests, and distinguished guests in
attendance.
It is through their dedication to the same
vision that has kept our German Family
Society as strong as it is today. We extend
heartfelt thanks not only to them, but also to
the generations of parents and grandparents
of our youth for taking the time to support
and promote this heritage. The Rickert’s
vision is very much alive today, evidenced by
the many activities of the groups within the
German Family Society”.
Erika orchestrated the evening perfectly in
her warm welcome to all. She shared how 60
years ago, Mr. & Mrs. Josef Rickert had a vision
and founded the Deutscher Familien Verein
to promote their German heritage and keep
its traditions alive today. A special thanks
was given to the Rickerts and everyone who
followed in their footsteps. Erika went on to
say, “the friendships “Kameradschaft” have
continued over the years and tonight we
celebrate the generations who’ve made lifelong friends throughout this club and beyond.
We celebrate the hard work and dedication
of our presidents and their boards, our past
and present group leaders, including Guenter
Moellmann, who for many years served as
a youth group leader as well as director of
the Harmonie Singers. Mrs. Liz Miller and her
daughters who leads the Children’s group,
presented most recently at the Muttertag
program and the Jr. Youth Group, Youth
Group and Tanzgruppe leaders who danced
during the evenings 60th celebration. The
soccer organization, under the direction of
A moment of silence was shared to remember
and honor those who are no longer among
us, but whose spirit is alive in our many fond
memories.
Rudy Stagl read the special proclamation
from Akron Mayor Donald Plusquellic’s office
honoring our 60 years of service and German
Heritage in honoring our club with a day of
recognition.
Mr. Robert Keller, accompanied by his wife
Phyllis, was the evenings first guest speaker. Mr.
Keller is currently serving as Brimfield Township
Executive, following many years of service
as Brimfield Township Fire Chief. Mr Keller
gave special recognition to the evenings
60th anniversary celebration. He stated
how proud the city of Brimfield is in our clubs
momentous anniversary. Also, he shared how
much our clubs events and members are
valued and respected for continuing in such
a rich German culture.
Erika Leipold introduced the evenings next
guest speaker, Mr. Robert Filippi, who is currently
the Landespraesident (National President),
Landesverband der Donauschwaben USA.
Mr. Filippi is a long-time friend and supporter
of the German Family Society and is fellow
member and past-president of the Cleveland
German Club, widely known as “Lenau Park”.
Mr. Filippi has an extensive background in the
national Donauschwaben organization. He
was born in Friesheim, Kreisstadt Regensburg
Germany, emigrating to the United States
in 1959 and settling in the Cleveland area.
He is married to Elisabeth Mueller, and they
have three children, who are also active
in the Cleveland German club. Mr. Filippi
captured the audience with his message
of the importance of tradition. to love our
culture, as well as to revel in the moments
that bring “goosebumps”. The compassion
and emotion filled Mr. Filippi’s words that
conveyed the true message of the “family”.
He led the youth and the entire audience to
moments of remembering each and every
close moment in which we share together.
The evenings next guest speaker was Rudy
Stagl, the current president of the Akron
German Family Society. Rudy follows in the
footsteps of his father, Rudy Stagl Sr., who
served as President of the German Family
Society in 1964 and again from 1969 to
1971. Erika shared a little-known fact…Rudy
has the distinction of being the first German
Family Society president who was born in the
United States. A little history of Rudy, for more
than 20 years, Rudy served on the German
Family Society board, 16 of those years as
Vice President. Currently, he is serving in his
second year as president.
Mrs. Helga Hippich, President of our ladies
club of the Frauengruppe spoke as well.
Following in the footsteps of the immediate
past-president of the Frauengruppe, Mrs.
Anna Koenig and several others before her,
Helga has served in her current position for 15
dedicated years. Previous to serving in her
current position, she coordinated the Kuchen
area for 6 years. In addition to the many hours
she and her Frauengruppe board members
spend in the kitchen preparing the wonderful
menus for club and private functions. Helga
emigrated with her parents, Mr. & Mrs. Guld,
in 1951.
Erica introduced Frau Anna Koenig, who was
the last speaker of the evening celebration.
Anna recently accepted the position of
head of our culture clubs or Kulturleiterin.
She is following the passing of Frau Barbara
Tonhaeuser who served in the same position
for many years. As culture group leader, Anna
hopes to instill in our youth some German
language skills which may serve them well in
the future, and to share the rich history that is
our club. The job of explaining why our club
and the other Donauschwaben clubs exist
and why we hope to continue the Rickert’s
vision into the future is an important task. It
is one that Anna takes to heart and works
hard to promote. To the young people in
our club, we hope you open your hearts and
minds to the history of the many youth groups
who preceded you so that this information
will also be an important part of your own
participation in your group today. All of us
who have had the privilege of being part of
any of the youth groups over the years, can
tell you that we’ve made life-long friends, an
experience that we will treasure the rest of
our lives. You are an important part of this
history.
After the dances, Rudy Stagl presented a gift
to Fr, David Misbrener in commemorating his
20th year in the priesthood. Also, gifts were
presented to our guest speakers Mr. Keller
and Mr. Filippi.

A Message from the
Ladies Frauengruppe President
To our founders of past and present, thank you
for your vision and persistence in providing us
and the future generations, a place where our
German culture and heritage can continue
and grow.
Helga Hippich
For those who were unable to attend our
60th Anniversary celebration, the following
is a message from our ladies Frauengruppe
president.
Guten abend Herr Prezident, Ehren Gaste,
meine Kollegen, und Gaste. Good evening
Mr. President, Distinguished guests, fellow
Members and guests. More than 60 years
ago our grandparents, parents, and relatives
began on a journey they did not choose. They
were forced to leave their homes, belongings,
and some were separated from their families.
They experienced hardships along this journey
that most of us cannot even imagine. Along
this journey, they emigrated to the United
States of America in hopes of fulfilling their
dreams of a safe place their family could live
in and prosper.
Pride, persistence, and hard work resulted in
making those dreams come true. Friendships
quickly formed amongst them and they found
a need to find a gathering place to socialize,
and share experiences and customs. St.
Bernard Church in Akron served as the first
home to this German group of immigrants.
Membership grew and a new home was
found on Grant Street, called the German
American Club, memories of a place very
near and dear to my heart. However, owning
and maintaining our own club became the
mission of many of the founders. A place
we could truly call home and promote our
German heritage, culture, and language.
Thus, today we celebrate the 60th Anniversary
of the Deutscher Familien Verein here at the
Donau Park in Brimfield.
As President of the Frauengruppe/Ladies
Auxiliary, I would like to thank all our members
for your dedication and commitment to the
German Family Society. Thank you for your
time in volunteering and support. To the
parents of our children groups, thank you for
your commitment in bringing your children
to the practices. Thank you to the Jugend
Gruppe/Youth Group for your dedication.
You are the future of the German Family
Society. Congratulations to all on this 60th
Anniversary.

of poor displaced families to allowing them
to establish themselves within St. Bernard‘s
church itself. God blessed these individuals
and gave them the strength to build this club
to what it is today.
For those who were unable to attend our
60th Anniversary celebration, the following
is a message from our ladies Frauengruppe
president.
Liebe Mitglieder, Vorstand, Gaste and Eheren
Gaste, Herzlich Willkommen zu unserem 60
Jubiläum. Wir sind sehr stoltz auf unseren
Verein und auf den heutigen anlass.
I wish to welcome our Members, Board, Guests
and Honorary Guests this evening. Welcome
to our 60th Anniversary Celebration. We are
very proud to have reached this Milestone for
our organization.
It is an Honor for me to be here today as
President of our German Family Society. I‘m
privileged that I would share this title with
such leaders that had formed our club, and
continued to shape it to where we are at today.
Presidents like Joseph Rickert and Joseph
Geiser, with over 20 years of service each, to
our Society.
We celebrate 60 years of selfless dedication
and hard work from the many new immigrants
that arrived in the early 1950‘s, to search
and establish an organization that they may
continue their family heritage and traditions.
It is in honor of those founding members that
brings us to our Landmark event this evening.
From the beginning, the Catholic Church
played a significant role in our founding. From
We had moved to the German American Club
in 1960 and we brought a new life to a club
that had been seeing years of decline. Many
became members of both clubs over the
next 12 years and some even held leadership
positions within the GA Club. We could hold
dances or weddings and host as many as 500
guests. The upstairs hall kitchen was about as
small as our current serving area. Most often
ladies prepared meals at home or roasters
lined the hallway. They worked together and
served us nice meals for our events. No matter
what obstacles we encountered, people came
together to resolve them and moved on.
As a child during the 60‘s, our club was such
a huge part of my life. German School on
Saturdays, yeah Dad was President, so I had to
go. I spent a few years in the Kindergruppe but
could not wait until I was old enough to join
the Youth Group.
Right from the very beginning, what set us
apart from the many other ethnic clubs was
the vision that our Founding Members had,
staying focused on our youth for tomorrow.
Many of today‘s members were the youth
of yesterday. What we were taught from our
parents and grandparents was hard work and
working together had instilled on us enormous
pride, that we continue here today.
From the Grounds Crew to the long hours of
dedicated time from our Frauengruppe, to the
Childrens Groups and to our Board, All of us,
are deeply proud on what we‘ve been able
to continue, and I might add, still on a 100%
volunteer basis.
Even during our large Festival events, it is huge
undertaking to ask and receive as many as 100
volunteers to help support our ever growing
Fests. This is no easy task and it gets tougher
every year but we do it because we all love our
club and we all do our part to make it happen.
difficult for me. We got through it and I truly
want to thank everyone for all for their help.
God Bless our German Family Society and God
Bless America, our new home!
Vielen Dank, Thank You all very much,
Rudy
We celebrate this evening not just with all
of you but in remembrance of all our past
and many founding members. These were
our Parents, Oma‘s and Opa‘s, Brothers and
Sisters, even our Children that had passed on,
that we honor them today on this special day.
Thank you for joining us tonight. We are very
happy that you would share with us in our
celebration this evening.
I want to Thank everyone on our Anniversary
Committee, those that assisted me with
translations, editing and my research including
St Bernards‘ and the city of Akron Archives.
I especially wish to Thank my Wife Amy,
for so many hours involved in the design of
our Anniversary book, including ads, logo‘s,
picture editing and so on. Thank You all for all
of your hard work. We could not have made
this happen without all of us working together.
I want to Thank all the Dance groups for
entertaining us for so many years and the
parents for bringing them out weekly and to
our events. We wanted to thank each and
every member of our Kinder, Jr Youth, Youth
Group and Tanzgruppe for their hard work,
with our 60th Anniversary Pin to be add to
their uniforms.
Lastly I want to thank everyone on our Board.
Without the cooperation of all of us and their
support and guidance the transition that I
undertook as President, and with the loss of
our friend Joe, it would have been much more
