Mr. Soeman was my neighbor many many years. He and his wife were very friendly people. Always had a smile and wave to us , across the street. He will be missed.

I don´t think I´ll be able to make it tonight. I don´t drive too much anymore. Please know you and your families are in my prayers. He will be missed. When Diana would come up from FL, we´d make a plan to visit him. Our first visit, Aunt Marilyn was able to visit too. We took pictures.
