Words of sympathy

Jan Willem Terink wrote a sympathy message

“Today we take a moment to remember our cousin in Canada. Even though we didn’t know him very well and he moved there at a young age, he was always part of our family. It is sad to know that he is no longer with us. We think of him with warmth and respect, and of the life he built there, far away but never forgotten. Rest in peace, dear cousin. Even though many miles separated us, you will always remain part of our story. Gert & Marja & Jan Willem Terink”
