Gunter Rueb, 83 of Newport Coast California passed away peacefully on February 18, 2017.
He was born March 10, 1933 in Munich Germany. He is survived by his wife Lotte Rueb, daughter Angie Stinar, and his grandchildren Jessica Nathanson, Tiffany Nathanson, Shane Stinar, and Kylie Stinar.
He graduated with an Engineering degree in Munich and then went on to work in Germany for several years. He came to America over 50 years ago with Zettler Munich, on a project through NASA, and later acquired American Zettler. He had an unwavering work ethic and truly loved what he did. He always maintained a very diplomatic approach no matter what the situation. He treated his employees and colleagues and everyone he came into contact with, with kindness, respect and fairness. He was an incredibly loving family man who was immensely educated, cultured and thoroughly enjoyed travel.
He will be greatly missed by his family and all who had the privilege of knowing him.

I am very sorry to hear of his passing. He was so kind to me. I will never forget him.

Gunter asked us where the relays were located. Neither Fred nor I said anything (Gunter was just smiling). I mean here we are, two experienced relay salesmen, and Gunter is taking us to school. On the way back out, Gunter did it again, still smiling.
To this day, I can't go anywhere without trying to spot the relay applications in everyday life (they're almost everywhere).
Gunter, I know you're really smiling now. The student finally learned the lesson. : )
Signed for Leonard and Kathy Stinar, as well.
Such a kind and caring man.
A wonderful man that I had the honor, and pleasure to work for at American Zettler.
May God Bless the Rueb family as they go through this difficult time.
