To all Colleagues and Friends,

As those close to me know, I am not good with goodbyes so I do apologize to those who feel offended that I

I truly am humbled to have worked with such a group of “get in and get it happening people” and I am so proud
of the achievements that you have accomplished both in the operation and (for quite a lot of you) for your own
personal accomplishments.

To those of you that I had the opportunity to coach and or set goals for, I commend each of you for your
achievements and hope that you continue to succeed through life journeys.

30th January 2017

Dear Frodi,

It was a real sorrow that I heard this morning of your great loss. I knew your mother was ill, for your brother
told me several weeks ago. However, as he at that time did not seem to think the illness was very serious, the
news of your mother’s death came to me as a shock. You have my sincere and heartfelt sympathy, my dear
fellow, in your sorrow. I know you will feel it deeply, for you always thought so much of your mother and
loved her so truly. I feel it also as a personal loss to myself, for your mother was always very kind to me. Her
death must be a terrible grief to your father, too. Please assure him of my sincere sympathy.

Words, I know, are poor comforters. “The heart knows its own sorrow”, and in such sorrows we are always
alone. However, it is not mere words when I say that I feel with you in your sorrow.
