Klein was born May 11, 1911 near Stillwater, OK, son of Ewald and Amanda Pansegrau Klein. The family moved to northeast Nebraska when Oskar was a small child. He attended rural schools near Martinsburg, NE and high school in Ponca, NE. As a young man he helped his father on the farm. He married Dorothy Maloney in May 1935. He farmed her home place north of Sioux City. Dorothy died in March of 1944. Oskar moved to the Lawton area in the summer of 1945 and began working for J. W. Bier construction as a carpenter. He had learned much about building from his grandfather, Christian Pansegrau. He married Carmen Empen in June of 1946 at the home of her parents, Carl and Johanne Empen. By 1950 he had established his own crew and began Klein Construction. Thus began a long career of building houses strong enough to withstand many generations of family living. He loved his work. Oskar served as Lawton mayor for eight years in the 1950's and early 1960's. He was a member of the Bethel Lutheran Church of Lawton since 1946. He served in many offices of the congregation. He was a former member of Lawton Volunteer Fire Department, the Lawton Community Club and the Friendship Center of Lawton. He loved gardening and was happy when he could provide vegetables to neighbors and friends. He retired in 1981 when macular degeneration destroyed his sight. Oskar moved to Sunrise Retirement Community in April of 2000. Oskar and Carmen had two sons, Carl and Eric. provided by Arlene McFarland #46981830
