My mother: Thank you for your loving care and loyalty

“we were lucky to have him as a friend and neighbour”

“ We loved him”

 “Richard was a very respectful  teacher, spiritual mentor, and a good friend of me and many brothers and sisters of Sabah.”

“he was our TTM's real and best friend”

“I remember Richard’s gentle kindness and keen intelligence, his generosity of spirit and his tolerance”

“My memories of him are that he was a man with much inner strength and a good heart who loved his family”

“Your parents had set a good example for many!”

“I shall take advantage of the occasion to remember Richard’s gentle kindness and keen intelligence, his generosity of spirit and his tolerance”

“Your father helped me a lot to translate the history of Basel Mission and hakka churches in China”

“My memories of him are that he was a man with much inner strength and a good heart who loved his family. “

And to finish is Dads mother tongue, a message from Legelshurst where he found his beloved Lisbethl

“Menschen, die wir lieben, bleiben für immer, den sie hinterlassen Spuren in unseren Herzen”

People we love always stay with us, because they leave their traces behind in our hearts
