Fritz (Barbara's father) was a German-Canadian artist who painted and sketched an estimated 10,000 works in his lifetime. Since his passing in 2008, at the age of nearly 94, it has become a labour of love for Barbara  to preserve these pieces, some of which have suffered deterioration  over the years.  This is a continuation of episode 102 featuring Waltraude Stehwien who was Fritz's wife.
