Jan and family, we are so sorry that we cannot be there with you today. Franz will be terribly missed, we are glad we were able to get to know him and enjoy his stories.
I was so sad to hear of dear Franz when I returned. In the short time I was privileged to share space on this earth with him, he and his family made an impact on my life. Janet, I am so very sorry for your loss! I have and will continue to pray for peace for your family during this time. Although it was through sad and stressful circumstances that our paths crossed, it was a true honor to meet you, the love of your life Franz, and your son. I thank you Janet and Erich for blessing me with a few stories of the good time during your life together. I wish your whole family calm as your remember and honor this great man.
So sorry for your loss.
