"Hartz and cordial": Benz barracks death dismayed - Johann († 54) found lifeless

The residents of the Benz barracks in Mannheim stick together.

Wherever they can, they support and help one another.

Especially Dagmar showed a lot of compassion and love for the neighborhood.

She took care of her alcoholic neighbor Johann for years.

The 54-year-old suffered from end-stage liver cirrhosis.

During filming in March 2020, Johann was found dead in his apartment *.

"Now it's finito, he's dead ... now he's made it," said Dagmar shortly after his death.

The other residents of the Benz barracks also mourned their neighbors.

"Hartz and heartfelt": Christa († 68) died - Bad words against daughter Petra

Only a few months later the next death occurred in the Benz barracks.

As the audience found out about "Hartz and cordial", Petra's mother Christa died of heart failure in the summer of 2020 *.

Life was not easy for the 68-year-old.

She had diabetes and was homeless for a while.

Although she was staying with her friends Gudrun and Michael, she did not want to stay there.

"I want to be alone now," said Christa in the "Hartz and cordial" episode "Am Scheideweg".

She also didn't want to be a burden to her friends.

In the end she found an apartment in the Benz barracks, but died a short time later.

Many viewers then denounced Christa's daughter Petra.

She would not have taken care of her mother adequately and would have let her down in the search for an apartment.

“Always jumped when the daughter needed her.

But when she lost her shelter, there was no daughter for her.

Rest in peace dear Christa, ”wrote a Facebook user, for example.

Dagmar didn't leave Petra too good either.

“When the poop is steaming, then the mothers no longer need them” - even though Christa always devotedly takes care of her grandchildren. 

She goes out into the fresh air with them, takes them to kindergarten”.

“I'm not so into dying and death and all that.

Especially when you get to know someone personally ”, Elvis admitted at the time.

“Hartz and cordial” in the Benz barracks: Shortly after the engagement - Heiko († 53) died of heart failure

Another particularly tragic death occurred in October 2021. Actually, the happiness between barracks Petra and Heiko seemed perfect. She got to know and love the ex-Berliner, and both moved in together after a short time. The two built their love nest on the edge of the Benz barracks. Shortly afterwards the next good news: Heiko and Petra were engaged! But fate is known to be a lousy traitor and so a tragedy occurred shortly afterwards, because Heiko died just a few days after the engagement *.

The 53-year-old had already gone through a lot in his past. Three heart attacks and one cancer severely weakened the former nursing home employee. He had to take over 30 medications a day to keep his condition from getting worse. But suddenly Heiko felt worse and worse. In an episode of "Hartz and cordial" Petra spoke about the last hours of her fiancé. “From Thursday to Friday night at 3 o'clock the ambulance was there - and at 5:26 am he died,” she said sadly and added: “While you were carrying [Heiko to bed], he and he panicked then yelled: Help, help, I'm falling, I'm falling.

The grandmother of 28 grandchildren had revealed in a "Hartz and cordial" episode what her last wish in life was. She wanted to “be there for a few more years” and “happily turn 70”. But Dagmar knew that she was in poor health. “When I think about it: A year ago I did it all by myself. And now it doesn't work anymore ", she said and added:" 67 years ... people, people, people. Now I am slowly heading towards the crypt. At some point the moment will come when the motto is: let's go to the potatoes. That’s the way of life. ”But fear of death didn’t show the good soul of the Benz barracks. Right up to the end, she showed herself as she knew her audience, neighbors, friends and family: smiling, strong and with a casual saying on her lips.The "Hartz und Herzlich" fans will certainly never forget Dagmar and the other deceased residents of the Benz barracks.
