Traditional Texan Vintage: An Ode to Hubert and Rose

Our upcoming estate sale is one of those estates where you can just feel the generations of family coming together. Originally from La Grange as German immigrants, they moved to Austin and raised a family of Austinites.

This quintessential American couple bought their modest, post WWII home, worked hard and raised two incredible kids.

Hubert engineered the great roads we enjoy with TXDOT. Rose was a gifted home economist, seamstress and hostess. They loved to entertain and had many friends here. Come step back in time to an era that shaped so many of us, come celebrate their life well lived.

The second generation of the family saved their parents and grandparents’ items from the ‘old country’ and the decades after remain.
