Tributes

Dear family in New Zealand. I have watched the link of the funeral. Get my condolences on the death of "ome Jaap". I think back with great pleasure to his visits to the Netherlands, but also to my own holiday (together with my mother "tante Wil", his siter) on your beautiful New Zealand. As soon as I look at a picture of "omee Jaap" I immediately see a lot of resemblance to my grandfather, the father of "ome Jaap". Both are no longer with us. That is a great loss for all of you. Lots of strength and power in the coming period. Lots of love out of Zoetermeer in the Netherlands. Hans Vrolijk vrolijk_hans@hotmail.com

Sending all my love to the Tuit family in this time. I know Opa Gerard will be there welcoming Oom Jaap with one of his amazing hugs. Love to you all back home in NZ.
