THE MAKER
After Friedrich Redecker started to become blind at the age of four and even operations could not make any real improvement, he was enrolled in the Soest school for the blind, where he received the standard training for the blind of the time: the craft of making brushes. Because Friedel Redecker had an entrepeneurial spirit, he built up a small company over time, with which he could provide for his wife and three sons. He was highly disciplined and kept on plying his trade until his death at the age of 72. Nowadays Friedrichs youngest son, Gernot Redecker and his son Felix are continiuing the Redecker tradition.
