Huberta was first called Bertha/Berthe which she didn't like since there was a cannon in WWI, called "Dicke Bertha" (fat Bertha). Once when she was ice-scating in a fur coat they called her "Beer" (Bear), and thats how she has been named ever after. For her nieces and nephews she became tante Beer (Aunt Bear), for her greatgrandchildren she was Oma Beer. Once in Australia, visiting family, a greatgrandson made the following observation: If she is Oma Bear then I am Suede Bear (Suede is son of Ingrid Heerens).
