We have been very fortunate to have had the friendship and opportunity to spend time with Horst and share so many stories and yuks. Hosrt was so passionate abount so many things his family, his freinds, boating, history, and travel. He was so full of life with a terrific sense of humor.

A smile comes to our faces every time we think of all the good times we were able to share with Jean & Horst. We were especially honored that they were able to make it to our wedding this past November in Key West. As boat neighbors we always enjoyed Horst coming over to dance to our "house" music! He was such a good friend and will forever be missed. Our deepest sympathy to Jean and their family.
