LETTER

Bandung
30th January 2017

Dear Fred,

It was a real sorrow that I heard this morning of your great loss. I knew your mother was ill, for your
brother told me several weeks ago. However, as he at that time did not seem to think the illness was very
serious, the news of your mother’s death came to me as a shock. You have my sincere and heartfelt
sympathy, my dear fellow, in your sorrow. I know you will feel it deeply, for you always thought so much
of your mother and loved her so truly. I feel it also as a personal loss to myself, for your mother was
always very kind to me. Her death must be a terrible grief to your father, too. Please assure him of my
sincere sympathy.
Words, I know, are poor comforters. “The heart knows its own sorrow”, and in such sorrows we are
always alone. However, it is not mere words when I say that I feel with you in your sorrow.

Your sincere friend,

Jack

To all Colleagues and Friends,

As those close to me know, I am not good with goodbyes so I do apologize to those who feel offended
that I have left having written only this farewell letter, without personally shaking their hand and

proud of the achievements that you have accomplished both in the operation and (for quite a lot of you)
for your own personal accomplishments.
To those of you that I had the opportunity to coach and or set goals for, I commend each of you for your
achievements and hope that you continue to succeed through life journeys.
