Rest in Peace Dear Chef

We regret to inform you, with deep sorrow and shock, that our esteemed boss and company founder, Karl Weglehner, has left us at the age of 62. His death has shaken not only our company but the entire business community. We are profoundly affected. Karl was a pillar of strength for all of us—calm, level-headed, and dependable. His mere presence conveyed security and stability. Now, his voice, his gaze, and his quiet authority, which guided us for so long, are gone. In this difficult time, we remember a person who led with heart and mind. His sudden passing leaves a void we can hardly put into words. We mourn an extraordinary individual whose absence we will feel every day.

As founder and managing director, he built the company from the ground up and turned it into a leading enterprise in the industry. His exceptional skill and vision enabled the company to achieve success and grow steadily and healthily. He never pursued quick profits but focused instead on solid craftsmanship, clear structures, and long-term partnerships. Every order, every project bore his signature—marked by care, responsibility, and a deep understanding of our customers’ needs. Through his determination and unwavering belief in what he did, he created more than just a company: he built a community that remains united to this day. His name stands for quality, integrity, and humane leadership. These values remain our compass.

He was an indefatigable businessman who dedicated himself to the company with passion and devotion. His leadership qualities and commitment to his employees will never be forgotten. He taught us that hard work, sound economic thinking, and an unshakable belief in what you do are the keys to success. Yet just as important to him was the person behind the work. He asked how you were doing, recognized achievement, and offered support in difficult times. Many of us learned from him what it means to lead with integrity—not through power, but by example. His door was always open, his advice always wise, his laughter warm. He nurtured talent without applying pressure and demanded performance without overburdening. This balance made him a boss whom people didn’t just follow—but gladly followed.

His loss is immeasurable to all of us. We will remember him as a great mentor, friend, father, and inspiring boss. His legacy will endure forever in the history of the company. Not only in the machines, the halls, or the projects, but in every conversation, every decision, and every team he shaped. His spirit lives on—in the way we treat one another, the way we work, and the way we take responsibility. In gratitude for everything he did for us and the company, we will carry him in our hearts forever. His name remains inseparably linked to this company—not only as its founder, but as a person who shaped us. We honor him by continuing to live by his values.

Rest in peace, dear boss.
