I am and always be daddy's little girl. He was funny and had a sense of humor. He would drive us crazy at times but we enjoyed it. We will miss everything about you. I love you daddy.

Dear Lottie, Monica and Peter, I was surprised to read in the paper this morning that Horst had died. Jack and I saw him at the Spaw-Glass anniversary party and I saw him at the book signing. It's been a long time (22 years)since he and I worked together at Spaw-Glass. Those were good years and I have good memories of working for the company and with all of the people I worked with. I know that all of your family will miss Horst very much. He loved his family and was always proud to speak of you. Please know that our prayers are for peace and comfort in this time of grief. Doris and Jack Dyson
