January 4, 1930 — January 4, 2017

Mr. Siegfried Kirbs passed away at his home in Tega Cay on his 87th birthday, after a long illness. He was cared for by Hospice Care of South Carolina. He was born in Briesen/Mark, Germany on January 4, 1930, a son of the late August and Anna Kirbs, the youngest of 7 children. He apprenticed in Germany as an electrician and worked for several years at the Neckar Werke. He immigrated to the United States in 1954, following a brother, a sister and his mother. He was employed just under 25 years as an industrial electrician at the Armstrong Rubber Tire Company in West Haven, CT followed by Marlin Firearms in North Haven, CT until his retirement. He remarried and moved to Tega Cay, SC in 1994 where he continued his many handy-man skills at home and for neighbors and friends, and continued to travel extensively with his wife.
