“Dear Gertie, Marlene, Jeffrey and Christopher, Time is an increadible thing. I just found out that Ralph passed away. We met a long time ago but it feels like yesterday and the memories are fantastic. In my mind, Ralph is about 38 years younger. The funny thing is that even when I get older, that's the way it will continue to be. I wish you all the love and strenghst to cope with Ralph passing away. With love, Gé van de Wetering”
