To The Family of Mr. Hans Olsen:
Hi Everybody!
I tried SEVERAL times before to respond via E-Mail, regarding your loss but I'm not very "computer literate", and I couldn't get my message to go through, but the passing of your husband and father is weighing heavy on my heart and mind, and I decided I HAD to try one more time...
I'm not sure if you will remember me (It has been a LONG time since we have had any contact), But I am Signe's old Junior High School friend who lived down the street from you (My name was Pam Hall back then...)
I just want to extend my deepest sorrow to EACH of you for your loss; when I read about it in The Muskegon Chronicle,, I felt a GREAT loss as well...
It took me back to a time in my life when I spent almost as much time at your house as I did at my own, and visa/versa with "Sig" spending just as much time at our house, and yet as I sat reading the obituary for Hans, I realized how little I really KNEW about him as a person back back then, in spite of the MANY hours I spent in his presence!
PLEASE KNOW you are EACH in my thoughts and prayers at this DIFFICULT time, and that you are ALL FONDLY REMEMBERED!
Sincerely;
Pam.##imported-begin##Pam (Hall)##imported-end##

Dear Sonja and Phil,
We have been away for a few days and just heard about Hans. We wish to extend our sympathy for the loss of your dad. From reading the obituary, I can see that he was a great guy who lived a long and full life. It is a shame that he had to suffer so in the last few years. I'm glad we were able to meet him that one time. You two were so good to him and I'm glad you were able to be with him at the end.
Sincerely, Jan and Jim##imported-begin##Jim and Jan##imported-end##
My heartfelt sympaty to Signa, Sonja and Alma in your loss of a kind, gentle and caring man. I remeber many days at Mona Lake growing up when your dad skated with us and helped us decorate our bikes for the kiddie parades we had up and down the street. He always seemed to lend a helping hand to our family. We enjoyed seeming him over the years when our paths would cross.
May you all have strength to face tomorrow as all pain subsides.
Love and peace,
Deb,Rick,John and David##imported-begin##Debra Pattenger (stafford)##imported-end##

My prayers are with you. Hans always had a smile on his face and in his heart.##imported-begin##Joann Gardner##imported-end##
Our prayers and thoughts are with your family.
The Book of Psalms notes that we are "fearfully and wonderfully made." God made us with a memory.
It is such a blessing that we can treasure our times with Hans. This way he can always be with us.
May you hold his memory close.
Peace to you.
