“My deepest condolences to Isabell and the entire family on Jorgs passing. He will be deeply missed by many. During the early days of the pandemic and working from home I remember many calls where Jorg would pause and speak to Astra, who was his great companion. The picture was taken at Jorgs retirement party from CKL, he was ready to dig into the cake and was “left speechless” that day, much to his own surprise. Keeping the Petersen family in my thoughts.

“My condolences on our collective loss. To the family and friends of Jorg: Your loss is much greater than mine, and yet as a former colleague of Jorg's, I feel this loss keenly. This is a testament to the impact that Jorg had on others. He had an incredible capacity for kindness. He has been taken far too soon. Sincerely, Robyn Carlson”
