DONAT G. WENTZEL

I was honoured to meet and worked with Prof. Donat Wentzel at ISYA and TAD programs in Vietnam. I am trying to spend my retirement life in disseminating astronomical knowledge to Vietnamese community. He will be always missed and be "The Restless Sun" in our memory.

Professor Donat G. Wentzel,
We, all Vietnamese teachers and students, who have met you, will remember you forever.
We highly appreciate what you have done for Vietnamese Astronomy.
The unforgettable days staying with you in Ascona, Switzerland in 1999 have been a good memory of my life.

To the person who was a suburb husband to my sister and complemented my sister in raising my lovable niece, Tania-Maria duBeau. Yes, he was also brilliant.

Our heartfelt condolences to Tania, Ed and Dylan. He was a wonderful educator, father, husband and above all human being. He will be missed and similarly remembered by all that knew him.

Don and Maria shared their home with me in 1983-84. I feel priviledged to know the warm and intelligent couple.

Tania & family,
My prayers go out to your family during this difficult time. May God Bless you and grant you His peace and comfort while you mourn.

A life so full and well lived in every aspect. Much love to Tania, Ed & Dylan.

I think I only met Don twice, with the last time at Thanksgiving dinner. He had a good time playing Apples to Apples and when he didn't have a card that fit, he would laugh and play any card that had to do with science, like Milky Way. I am so grateful to Don and Maria for the way they adopted and raised my daughter, Tania, for so many years. He was a kind and supportive father. He will be missed by Tania, Ed, and Dylan, but also by some of my family members who finally got to meet him when...

Thankful for the life of a man who studied the stars and brought light to so many in this world. Tania, Ed, and Dylan,my prayers are with you all as your remember this beautiful life.
