Dear Family,

We share your deep sorrow and extend our heartfelt condolences to you and your family. We have always admired Wolfgang for his courage and boldness. It was an enrichment to know him as our friend. A bond that only age, but not distance, could separate. He is now free, and our tears wish him happiness.

In deep attachment and friendship

Trude, Heidi, Tom and family.

Rolf knew Wolfgang in Germany, and then in the late 1950's they met again in Oshawa after they had both immigrated to Canada. He attended Wolfgang and Trude's wedding in 1959 and our families grew up together and have remained friends ever since. We will miss him dearly but have many wonderful memories of our times together.

Love from Rolf, Ulla, Robert, Susan and family.
