Dear Rosie and family,
Unfortunately I have just heard that Ben passed away shortly after our phone call in January 2018. He was the best water ski teacher I have ever had and a very good friend as well. I will miss him. I hope that Rosie is getting along without him. It will be hard and my thoughts will be with her. I am very grateful that I met Ben and his family. We spent a lovely time at the lake in Wisconsin. These memories are wonderful and no one can take them away. Love Brigitte

I was thinking of the Sontag family this morning. Maybe because I walked by a picture I have ofthe old circular Hastings bridge. Your family always had a special place in the hearts of our family. Luckily, you have a wonderful family to get through a difficult time. Thoughts and prayers to you.

Dear Rosie,
You know that both Ben & You have been in our prayers. Your short time in North Gate was full of great experiences. Our thoughts go out to you at this sad time.
