Hessel DeJong

Us meilibjen, wy ûnthâlde Hessel as in tige freonlik man. Hy bleau doe by myn âlden yn Easterbierrum. Hy filme de prachtige provinsje Fryslân, dêr't er berne is, en hat it yntusken thús beskikber steld foar syn famylje. Wy hawwe letter kontakt hâlden troch kaarten te ferstjoeren mei jierdei en om Kryst en Nijjier hinne. Wer letter wie der mailkontakt, en hy fûn it moai as dat yn it Frysk barde. Dêrom dit Fryske meilibjen, as earbetoan oan Hessel. Dit is ek maklik te lêzen foar de sibben...

God bless this man

I´ve known Hessel for many, many years, but lost touch for too many more. An interesting, intelligent man. I remember at the time, he would track earthquakes all over the world. We have lost a true, decent gentleman. Tom Kurnat

Our deepest condolences to my cousins, Betty, Debra, Mary and Andrea and their families at the loss of their father, grandfather and great-grandfather. Prayers for peace and comfort for all of you.
