When I saw your headline, I thought, he must have been 100 years old. So 98 he was...

There is Andrea, Monika, Michaela, Gabriela, Walburga, Karl, and Georg

He was the last with some sort of legal right to claim the throne of AH. His sons and their children merely ensure the survival of the name. There is a Napoleon something out there, the head of his house, but has no claims, similar to Karl now. Still odd to see old Otto go, he seemed ubiquitous.
