Updated Purk Biographies

Elmar was a young man in Estonia when murderous Communists from Russia, aided by their Allied armies from Britain, France and the U.S., hunted Europe end to end to tear Germanic children from their families, murder their parents, imprisoning family members thousands of miles away as slaves, in their gulags. They torpedoed thousands of fleeing refugees from Estonia. (11,000 killed in a single torpedo attack on a refugee cruiser from Estonia, among others), and torched 1/2 a million Germanic refugees at Dresden. They tortured and murdered them in Jewish designed and managed gulags in Russia, and gave all their ethnic German property and homes to their soviet soldiers of war, to better enjoy their settlement and occupation of Estonia.. Elmar lost his entire family, as did millions of other Germanic peoples in every reach of Europe. He married and had only 2 children, whom had the misfortune of having no grandparents, cousins or extended family support in the USA. The orchestrators of Elmar's tragic fate made up a big lie and accused their dead victims and their progeny of doing to them, exactly what they themselves indeed did do to their Germanic victims. Total Genocide. 22 million German and ethnic German victims, WWII. Instead of building memorials for these holocausts on Germanic gentiles, they built memorials to themselves and forced their genocided victim's descendents to pay "reparations"!
Karl Louis Purk of Castle Rock, Colorado United States was born on March 11, 1957 to Elmar Purk. Karl Purk has a sister Maria Louise Purk. Family, friend, or fan, this family history biography is for you to remember Karl Louis Purk.
Maria, a true Holocaust survivor, managed to accomplish so much more than anyone else in her American line, despite having her entire family cut off from her from her father, back, before she was even born. She was the first woman in the family to drive, and the first to own her own estate and land. She met and made lifelong friends with many rock stars, including U2, The Alarm and BOC. She did modelling and print ads in Steamboat Springs and had small parts in Viacom productions filmed in Denver. After seeing her at some Perry Mason sets, the biggest modelling agency in Denver in the 80s, JF Images, sent two different mentors directly to her apartment in downtown Golden to groom her for the big screen. She demured, and, she ultimately chose to live the wild and free path of nature, in a beautiful forest on a river off grid, being with her family 24/7 and caring for and loving wolves, and her best friend and child. Her truest desire- To spend the last quarter of her time on Earth in the great North woods, surrounded by wolves, weather, and wildlife. She's halfway there, so far...
