For those of you who might want to find out a little more about me, here is your chance to check me out at your leisure. You don't have to buy a book, or try to remember what someone said. Often the truth gets a bit distorted coming down the human pipeline. The following pages will give you the statistics of my history, ministry, as well as a little of my philosophy.

The reason I go by the name of von is rather logical when you look at the German name my parents gave me. Baron, Erhardt George Anton Wolf Trutzschler von Falkenstein is an impressive name but way too heavy to carry around. My father came from Germany in his late teens and I inherited his big name when I was too little to object. I, or rather they, changed my name from Erhardt to von when I entered the army. The formal name I go by now is Erhardt, von Trutzschler.

— Pastor Von

	AN INTRODUCTION TO PASTOR VON A brief biography of Erhardt George Anton Wolf Trutzschler von Falkenstein.		AUDIO/VIDEO What I read, what I see, and what I hear is the trinity of successful communication. Here's the hearing and seeing that brings this site to life.
	COLD KOREA As a soldier in the Korean War I knew what it was to get scared, get cold and poke fun at the Army.		PHOTO ALBUM Photos, photos, photos. I love taking photos. I use photos to bring history, life and a degree of authenticity to this site.
	MY HISTORY IN WORKING WITH YOUTH This page will take you from my early days in our San Diego youth group (1950+) to my present status. History it is; all the stats as to the churches I've worked in.		CARTOONS I enjoy drawing cartoons. My overseas deployment in Japan and Korea and later my job as a mechanic at Convair provided me with the opportunity and time to draw cartoons of life as I saw it and spin them with a little humor.
	PHILOSOPHY AND TIPS ON LIVING LIFE A person's philosophy reveals the reason the person is who he is. Here are some glimpses into my philosophical journey.		PUPPETS In my late teens I enjoyed a couple of years of making and handling puppets. My father in San Francisco entertained with puppets and in this case it was "like father, like son." Here are a few photos of my short puppet career.
	PERSONAL THOUGHTS Early on I was impressed with the Book of Proverbs. Instead of keeping a journal, I've written brief "thoughts" on a variety of subjects.		MY PAINTINGS IN GALLERY FORM On this page I take some liberty with my photos, enhancing some prize photographs with a "painters" eye.
	STUFF FROM MY NOTEBOOK A variety of interesting and little known stories, facts and articles that I transferred from you scrapbook to my site.		MY FAT "WIFE" I've taken the liberty of showing pictures of my wife and family, that I've kept in my wallet for many years. I always keep them close to my heart.
	STORIES FROM MY JOURNAL Many years of working at the heart of Tijuana's hard core poverty gave me hundreds of true stories. I've taken time to write them down and place them on this page.		MY FATHER WOLO Many don't know anything about my father who was a well-loved and well known California entertainer, artist, newspaper columnist, and book writer. Several years ago, I wanted to dedicate a site to Wolo and his many friends. Meet the man, take a look.
	MY TREASURE To understand that through your life and ministry God has used you to make a difference in lives is indeed a treasure. I've listed on this page some of the notes and comments people have sent me.
