FREDERIK N. KLAASSEN

As a child Frits was in an orphan house in Wassenaar, my mother Elly Verhoev was there too, and we kept always contact with Frits with email and Skype conversations, and the wooden cross he made is still on the wall in our house. We appreciate the way he lived and will live forever in our minds

Frits was such a good friend to my father, and such a nice man to everyone he knew. I looked forward to hearing from him after we moved from Gainesville and will miss him. He carved a beautiful bird for me and it sits with the carvings my dad made.... I think of him fondly whenever I see it .... sending hugs and love to his family. Patti and Jeff Steinback

Een verre vriend die ik zal gaan missen.
Rust in vrede.

I had the great priviledge of taking care of Mr. Klaassen in my Urology Clinic for many years. I always enjoyed seeing and talking with him. He was a very fine man. My condolences to everyone in the family.

Mr.Klaassen was an incredibly special person, who had become very dear to me. I will miss his phone calls and conversations. The cross that he carved for me remains a cherished gift which I will always be grateful for. The world is a much darker place without his genuine love and concern.

RIP Frits. I'll remember you as a very warm personality, always keeping in touch with Holland, having endless phone calls on any subject we shared interest in. I cherish great memories on both your visits to Holland and my trip to Gainesville. May you and Myrna rest peacefully.

We will miss our former neighbor, a wonderful caring man. I treasure the wood carving by Frits that I have.
