RIP!

I'm really sorry but in a way I'm glad that your dad's suffering ended. It was painful for him and for your family to watch.

The road to recovery will be slow and painful. We are there for you if you need some comfort or re-assurance. Best of luck for University.

Rest in Peace.

How hard it might be to say goodbye to your dad, I'm sure you have some great memories together that no one can ever take away from you! I'm absolutely sure he is so proud of you knowing you're going to University now and getting your driving license. Now you can really enjoy your car passion! I don't have many words right now, but I really admire you for still supporting JW as good as you can even in this difficult time. A lot of props for that! I wish you and your family a lot of strength and all the best for you! Hope to see you soon on JW and of course congratulations on getting your license :good:

Yeah it wasn't easy but we have to go on. Thanks and Im glad I can drive now too mate!

No problem mate, your comment and thoughts are enough!

Yeah Im glad he's out of pain Gray like you say..

As I told you before it´s a great place for people who wanna work in the automotive industry. I still feel that this study has been very important for me and I still benefit from it. Are you gonna travel between Driebergen and R-dam? We should make an appointment to eat something in Driebergen (lekkere vette hap ) We keep in touch!

Yeah it wasn't easy Peter as you know but we have to go on. Yeah Im going to the Iva, I started last week and I have a room in Driebergen. If you want to meet up sometime no problem! Thanks again Peter!

Heel veel succes op je nieuwe school, ik ken daar ook enkele mensen en ik hoor er niets dan goeds over dus dat zal wel goed komen

Thanks Rutger!

Well his organs couldn't be used since they were infected but his eye-tissue could be used so they took that away.

No problem Yann, cheers!

I thank everyone whose supported me and my family in this very difficult time, like I said im glad its over now and we can move on. I myself by going to university. It won't be easy and I will have to work hard but we are going for it.

Only drawback is that I have a room there and there is no internet unfortanely, so please forgive me if the Video Vault isn't updated every day :cry:

[sentra_dude]

R.I.P.

So sad to hear this, I think it makes us all realize how fleeting life can be, and that we must remember to enjoy the time we do get with loved ones...

I wish you the best at your new school, and congrats on the driving.

[saadie]

Im really sorry dude :cry:

RIP

[gucom]

damm i totally missed this... i wondered wether ur absence had anything to do with ur dad, so sorry to hear he's gone...

Glad to hear that you're coping though, all the best at driebergen, some family members studied there and ended up very fine indeed

[bmagni]

I guess theres not to say. I'm really sorry to read this and if theres anything you need don't hesitate to ask.

[novass]

I just happened upon this thread and wanted to express my condolences. Sorry to hear about your loss, but as you, and others have said, at least he isn't suffering anymore. RIP

[Zot09]

Just like Novass, I just found this thread.

I'm really sorry for your loss, I can't even imagine how much it must have hurt. At least he isn't in pain anymore, and is in a better place. I wish you, your family and friends the best.

Rest in Peace.
