We last talked ten years ago, at a CHS Fortieth Reunion event. We recounted the good old days...selective memory. We promised to stay in touch and do it again...promises not kept. But, today as I read and reflected, I found a renewed joy and anticipation that the meeting will occur, and the fellowship will be the sweetest ever, as brothers in Christ.

Hans, you are missed my friend. They say you go through life and can count your true friends on one hand. . . we let each other into our lives, shared stories, impromptu cook ins where “slather” became king of the meal. We bonded as friends and brothers in Christ . A bond never to be broken. Your painted rock rides with me every where I go. I’ll see you someday. . . until then, “keep things in order as the newest Sergeant of Arms” in Gods Kingdom.
