Van harte gecondoleerd met het verlies van Geurt. Het is lang geleden dat ik bij jullie op bezoek ben geweest. De vogels bewonderd. Prachtig hoe Geurt er over vertelde. Vanuit Nederland leef ik mee met jullie. Ik ben de zus van Teus. Sterkte Riet.
Thinking of you all - especially today - when things can seem so final.
