Please accept my sincere condolences on the death of your mom. I worked with her at ECCC and truly enjoyed my shifts with her. I tried to speak French to her once in awhile (my French was very limited) and I’m sure she knew it, for she would give her wonderful smile and chuckle a bit. Lut was a very wonderful lady and she will be truly missed. The good Lord now has her in His loving hands.
Hello Marleen, Anne Marie and Kristien,
Hereby I will send all of you me and my parents sincere condolences on the death of your mother and our “tante Lut”.
It’s allready a long time ago that we’ve seen here, but I remember her as a lovely optimistic good laughing woman, talking a dialect of “Leuven” with an English accent. I am a daughter of Frans and Anny. Many greetings from Belgium.xx
