German billionaire Berthold Albrecht, heir to the Aldi supermarket chain and one of the world's richest men, has died aged 58. Albrecht was buried last month in a private ceremony attended by close
family and friends, according to a full-page death notice from his wife
Babette published in Handelsblatt newspaper today. There was no mention
of the place or cause of his death.
Together with his brother Theo
Jr, Albrecht's fortune was estimated at $17.8 billion, according to
Forbes. That placed them at 32 in the list of Forbes billionaires and
second for Germany.
May his soul rest in peace, Amen.
