He was employed for 25 years as a technical writer with Hewlett Packard beginning in Palo Alto California and transferring to Fort Collins, CO.
Par met and fell in love with Karin Rehnke, they eloped and were married on September 12, 1990.
Looking for a place to call home and wanting a farm like location they purchased five acres at the corner of 9th Ave and Airport Road in Longmont in January of 1991 and named it Glen Oaks Farm. Here Karin, “Miss Sam” as she was known to her many students and families, created Glen Oaks Farm preschool, a magical place of learning and fun. Par was an integral part of the preschool, interacting with the children and providing support to Miss Sam.
On the north side of Glen Oaks Farm, Par planted trees and had a special quiet place where he would do tai chi meditation and yoga for his spiritual well-being.
He was preceded in death by his parents and his brother Irwin Klein.
