Hi all you Trekkers.
It is with a heavy heart that I want to inform you of the sad passing away of our dear friend and fellow TrekNature enthusiast, Aaltjie Zeevenster.
His relatives in Holland informed me that he bravely and silently fought against the big "C" for many months, but finally he departed on the 19th October 2009.
Some of you might not have known him, but he will be sorely missed by Anna and I and I am sure many others as well with whom he had contact on this site.
Best regards
Loot |

Dear Loot and Anna,
I had a perception of Aaltjie as a quiet man keeping an eye on TN and occasionally coming forward with a critique or two on the pictures he really liked. Ironically, he never displayed any pictures of his own. It was more than obvious that he admired your and Anna's work. On rare occasions, I too was the recipient of his reaction to my pictures.
My heart-felt condolences to both of you for losing a close and affectionate friend.
May his kindly soul rest in peace!

I'm just a new member and still don't know some of the old TN members, but knowing someone passed away is really really sad. Although i don't know the man, still i want to send my heartfelt condelence and prayers to the family and friends of Mr. Aaltjie Zeevenster. I believe God had already reserved a very good place for Him in heaven.
Best regards,
Arman |
