Dear Hans Ockermueller!
I want to give all my respect to you, although at the time we met, we, my friend and me, who stayed at the Austrian Consulate in Calgary, were young and in a kind, silly guys.
As I can remember, you were very patient, courteous and reliable, and I will thank you for everything, you did for us during our stay in Canada.
Hopefully, you had a fulfilled life, and you can rest in peace.
Sorrywise I did not come back to Canada anymore since 1984 and got information that you passed away just now.
Sincerely
Arif Dylgjeri
