To the entire Vander Werf Family: So sorry for your loss. I had the great fortune to have known and worked with 'Coach" in the late 90's with Mohawk and remember his laughter and smile. I live near the Twin Cities and am very sorry I was unable to attend the Memorial Service.

Barbara, Finney and I were so lucky to have met you and the "Coach". We always looked forward to seeing you in Florida each year. Both you and Bob were such a delight to be around. He will definitely be missed by all. Hopefully, in the future our paths will cross again. Take care of yourself. Thinking of you and Coach, Finney and Debbie
