Christel Hoppe's demise is more terrible news. She was such a dear lady. I knew her just as long as I knew Harry, as they attented most conventions and meetings together. I deeply felt for her when her husband died and I could just imagine that her heart was broken for good when Harry also left our world. She seemed quite steady when I gave her my condolences at his funeral, but I guess it just took some time for the unbearable truth to sink in. I will always keep the fondest memories of her.

I'm glad I visited Christel at the beginning of June and had a lunch and a nice afternoon with her. I lost with Christel my last "mother". Will be at her funeral next Tuesday.

 

Sandra will need now some support. I’ll help her with the charity of Harry.

Oh this is so sad. Her heart was broken with the loss of Harry. 

​

We all have memories of many happier times when Christel and Harry were at Conventions. No one can take those away.

Very sad news. Christel certainly had had a lousy time of it over the last few years: losing a husband and a second son in such short a space of time would not be easy. She was a lovely lady, good fun and “mutti” to all.

Christel was a very special person. We will all miss her friendly presence a great deal. And, yes, we have lost another dear friend.
