Armin Pergande, brother of Christa Talbot of Landrum, passed away in West Germany after a lifetime with an injury received in the World War.

An avid bicyclist, he had to give up all physical movement and dedicated his life to experiments with electronic machinery.

He is survived by his sister, Mrs. Charles Talbot of Landrum.

As the only family member, she would like to thank the guests and workers of the White Oak Manor for their expressions of sharing, of joining their feelings with her, and for the expressions of understanding so kindly offered to her by her “table mate,” Virginia B… “I will never forget you! God bless you all,” she said.
