Alfons's grandmother was a strong and matronly woman who basically functioned as his mother when she manipulated her daughter into letting her raise him. She survived throughout the war, encouraged Alfons to retain his Catholic Faith and silently was skeptical of the Nazis until Wittlich was bombed by the Allies. She then came to curse Hitler openly.
