The TAE family mourns the loss of Walter Grupp

Walter Grupp, Director of the TAE Office in Brussels
(16 June 1952 – 8 September 2021)

It was with great shock and profound sadness that we learnt of the death of our long-standing friend and partner, Walter Grupp.

For over two decades, Walter headed our office of the Taxpayers’ Association of Europe (TAE) and the Bavarian Taxpayers’ Association in Brussels and was one of our most important liaisons with the political establishment there. He was a passionate advocate for small and medium-sized enterprises and leaves a huge void. His sharp mind, his deep compassion, his incredible breadth of vision, his sense of humour, his keen intuition and his boundless passion will be missed immeasurably by us all – both professionally and personally.

 Walter, you are absolutely irreplaceable and are already missed so very much!

 With deep solidarity and gratitude!

Rolf von Hohenhau (President)
Michael Jäger (Secretary-General)
