Heino mourns his sister: “Had an intimate relationship”

Pop singer Heino (86) mourns the loss of his older sister Hannelore Hofmann, who died in her hometown of Düsseldorf at the age of 92. As the newspaper reports, Hofmann died at the beginning of May and the urn burial took place in the narrowest family. “The news of my sister’s death made me very sad,” said Heino the “Bild”.

The two would have had their whole life an intimate relationship and had been very close until the end. “My consolation is that Hannelore had a fulfilling, happy life. I will be very missing,” said the musician. As a child, she took care of him in the turmoil of the war and was always there for him later. At a funeral service, Heino was able to say goodbye to his “big sister” alone, “in silence and undisturbed”.

Around two years ago, the singer had to cope with a big loss. Heino’s wife Hannelore Kramm (1942-2023) died on November 8, 2023 in Kitzbühel. On the first day of his wife’s death, he wrote: “With a laughing and a crying eye, I look back at more than 44 years of marriage full of love, happiness, happiness and harmony and miss Hannelore.” The musician also explained about his long -time manager Helmut Werner (41), his wife Nicole Mieth (34) and her son Lennie: “They give me support and confidence and I am grateful that they are with me.”

Even now Heino said the “Bild”: “I am glad that I have always had Helmut, his wife Nicole and her little son Lennie around me. Without them, it would be much more difficult for me to cope with such a loss.” He could never have overwhelmed his wife’s death, said Heino, who continues to be on stage. “Life has to go on. And neither my wife nor my sister would have wanted to fall into tribulation and stop singing.” At every concert he think of the two and send them a greeting to the sky.
