German title dealer Hans-Hermann Weyer has died on August 15th at age 85 in Rio de Janeiro.

In the media he is usually referred as Konsul Weyer and he himself appears as Consul Weyer Graf von Yorck.

Weyer mediated honorary consulates and adoptions by mostly impoverished members of noble families for wealthy customers and occasionally appeared in public in uniforms he had designed himself. You could say he was a bit eccentric.

Oh, we picked the wrong Wepper Who could have guessed that?

[gcreptile 10,964]

"Funny", or as Alanis Morrissette would say, "ironic". Heart failure, mostly unexpected, gone in a second.

Meanwhile his brother looked like death warmed up at some point last year because of cancer.
