Dear Ian, Albert and Hugo (the boys/die Jungs 'unbekannterweise' as Olaf was wont to say)
I only found out this morning that Olaf had passed away.
I was - and am - exceedingly upset. I can only imagine how you must feel.
I'd known Olaf for 29 and a bit years. I valued him and our these days somewhat distant friendship more than he himself perhaps knew.
I shall miss him snd our message exchanges on our birthdays, at Christmas/New Year etc very much.
I am with you tomorrow in spirit if not in person.
Hugs
Anthony
