"He
lived an impressive life, one to be proud of, as you all are. I'm
sorry for your loss, but his special qualities will continue to live
in his children."
"We
shall all feel the loss of this terrific husband, father and
friend."
"I will always keep excellent
souvenirs of uncle Lars - such a warm and generous person. He took
my kids around his garden and showed them the secrets of
vegetables."
"He
was an amazing man! I’ll never forget the time he took
[us] to the top of
Brunswick
Square in the
“High Speed Elevator”, while it was
under
construction. That was cool."
"He...stepped up, when straight
to the fridge and brought back a jar of pickled herring he had
prepared himself - with obvious pride. Without asking me, he served
me a piece of it. Now, I really had not expected that, and I was
telling myself that I should have kept my mouth shut ! Then, I
figured I could not afford to look like a coward, and I decided I
could not refuse it. I ate it, and much to my surprise it was quite
good, although I must admit I would not have it for breakfast !"
"The
lost of your father is strongly felt by us...he was a father's
figure to us."
"I
can see clearly the almost-constant smile that Lars wore... He was a
good, kind, competent man, who I enjoyed meeting and working with."
"Je découvre encore cet homme
merveilleux. Il demeure dans nos coeurs et nos pensées. On ne peux
oublier son sourire et son charme."
"...he certainly always seemed
like a "cool father"... As an member of the 1st Gondola Point
Venturer Company I will always remember his affinity for
volunteering and how he was quick to assist when required."
"I remember Lars' exceptional work
on the construction of our building. The Atlantic Veterinary College
is really standing the "test of time" and is a lasting testament to
his construction skills."
"...he lived enough for 2 or 3
people"
"...he met the news [of his
cancer] peacefully and accepted the facts of life and death. I
sincerely hope that I am able to show as much grace when my time
comes."
"Uncle Lars and Tante Janine have
represented hospitality and generosity for me - two important ideals
for me."
"Lars was a wonderful man whose
spirit was obvious to all who met him."
"...he had made a contribution to
the betterment of mankind. In the end, that is what really matters."
