My condolences. Very sorry to hear this. I remember your dad from a long time ago. He struck me as a strong and affable man. He certainly produced some great kids. My best to all of you.

We are sorry to see of Hans passing. He was a good friend to Isabelle Hunt before, and after, they both took up residency in Maplewood. Isabelle experienced lots of good card games and social events with Hans and Mabel over the years. Isabelle enjoyed sharing her daily London Free Press with Hans while in Maplewood. I made a number of trips to his room with the newspaper after Isabelle was done with it. Hans was a true gentleman and we are sorry for your loss.
