Dear Solveiga and Mara,
Heartfelt condolences on the passing of your father. May he rest in peace and may good memories give you strength at this difficult time.
As John Galsworthy said:
“Love has no age, no limits and no death.”
You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Solveiga – and Mara…
When I saw the notice in the paper – a small flood of Auseklis Jansons – related memories came to me…..I recall smiling faces and happier times…..and one by one, the memories, and our people fade and leave us………
I think of you both,
In sympathy and friendship,
