Dear Bea,
Liz and I were so very sorry when we heard of Hans' passing, we had to sit down to get over our initial shock. We talked about the good times we had with you in Tucson and Chicago, especially talking about work and some of Hans' customers. I worked for Hans from 1963 until his retirement and then I stayed at All American until 1997, so I remember many customers. Hans was always a good and fair boss and, if I may say, also a good friend.
Liz and I hope to...

Dear Mrs. Spear,
My Deepest Sympathy to you and your family.
I had the privilege of knowing Hans when he lived in Chicago. He was a great man and a great artist and a good businessman.
He will be deeply missed by all.

Dearest Bea,
I was shocked and saddened to hear the news. Hans was always such a delight when he came to see us. He made us laugh with his jokes, taught us history, and enlightened us with stories of his past. I feel honored and humbled to have know him all these years. I will always be grateful for his trust, allowing me to care for his back and health over the past ten years. Our thoughts and prayers are with you now and always.

Bea,
I want to send my condolences from the bottom of my heart. Hans was an amazing man who emulated a true Jewish American Hero.

The medals, weapons, pictures, articles and other materials gathered by him speak volumes of his courage and dedication to America. I have often thought of Hans throughout this deployment in Afghanistan; Hans has been with me as I collected...
