Reminiscing a beautiful friendship bonded over the years... It all started from a warm & strong handshake on his first day at work in Cyberjaya. Then follows by series of work meetings, social gatherings & ways to localise him to M’sian culture and the list goes on........ He was one person who never stops smiling even in the most stressed and critical situations in GI-D world. Over the years, I cherished the great conversations we had over work, food, holidays, “the Dutch cultures” and discovering his talent in Racquet Games and Singing!! \
We were looking forward to catch-up with him and his family in Sept and had our last thought of his trip back to NL over dinner on Sat. The following day at 10am NL time, I received a call from Francis of the sad news - was shocked and shaken! We just couldn’t digest the news and eventually the personal grief sink-in and we do miss him and great lost to many people who knows him. He was a wonderful colleague, great leader, good friend, loving husband and great father-figure!! He has touched our life in different ways and will always have fond memories of him!! Our prayer and thoughts are with Angelique, Natasha, Yorrick and Thomas.
God bless always
