On Friday 24th of May 2013 my mother died. So now starts a period of mourning for me and I won't be active here that much for some time. She died peacefully and the day before we were able to say goodbye to here. She was 82 years old. May she rest in peace.

dear Ruud, my deepest sympathies are with you in this time of sorrow.
Gecondoleerd, Ruud. Ik wist het niet - ik had je gister zelfs nog een vrolijke post gestuurd - lees het nu pas en ik schrik er wel van. Ook al is 82 een heel mooie leeftijd, en ook al is vreedzaam heengaan iets om na te streven, het is toch zo ontzettend jammer dat ze niet meer in ieder's midden is...
Dank voor het delen van die mooie foto.
Heel veel sterkte, voor jou en de dierbaren om je heen.
I know that the loss of the mother is very very hard. There is nothing you can say and do BUT time will help you to overcome this pain. I wish all the best for the rest of your family and strength for you to keep everybody together in peace. You Friend from Istanbul, İlknur (iko)
Wishing you and your family strength and healing. All the best
thabk you all for the kind words.
Remember the wonderful moments. Those will give you piece and a smile. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Best wishes to you and your family, Ruud. Take care ......
