In memory of Otto Hübner

Created by WackenHelge
01/05/2015

We take leave of Otto Hübner who passed away on December 29th, at the age of 76.

 

Otto Hübner was the father of Holger and Oliver Hübner and father-in-law of Heike Hübner.

 

From the beginning Otto backed the W:O:A and was supporting the festival of Holger and Thomas since it started from the scratch. In 1993, when it didn´t looked very well for Wacken Open Air he and his wife Jutta took part on granting a guarantee to save the future of the festival.

 

In our memories Otto will always remain as a loving father and important member of the W:O:A family. Without his ongoing support the festival wouldn´t be what it is today.

 

R.I.P. Otto

 

The thoughts of the whole W:O:A team are with Holgers family and friends in these sad hours.
