Beste Monique en familie,
Wij vernamen daarstraks( via Marc T) het zeer droevige nieuws van het overlijden van jullie zoon Paul.
Als geen ander beseffen we heel goed wat dat met jullie doet en doen zal. We besparen jullie onze gevoelens maar willen jullie toch, hoe gek het ook moge klinken, veel sterkte toewensen.
Van ons mogen jullie gerust de tranen eens laten vloeien, is soms beter dan dat ‘sterk houden’.
Probeer jullie wat vast te houden aan de leuke zaken die jullie de voorbije 48 jaar samen beleefd hebben, helpt soms, geloof ons.
Voor de rest weten wij gewoon niet wat zeggen gezien het recente verlies van onze Wouter nog dikwijls knaagt aan ons en de hele familie.
Nog een dikke warme knuffel van ons beiden,
Ben Thyssen,Karien van Raemdonck
en kinderen.

Lieve Familie,

To my dearest sister Marga and to Ernest and to their children and grandchildren, all my nieces and nephews we would like to express our deepest sympathy. Even though we are far from you and rarely see each other, we too feel the sorrow for the loss of Paul. We only knew him as a white curly head child and that was enough to forever close him in our hearts. May all your own memories of this special brother, together with all the shared memories of friends and far away family, such as the beautiful story I read here from our nephew Joep Kops, bring you comfort as you deal with this grief.
Love and strength from Moreno Moll and Marie José Ernst

To the Vanderschot Family and Friends:
Please accept my sympathy as your mourn the loss of Paul, (your son, brother, uncle). I remember Paul as a lively little curly head blonde boy with a cheerful smile. When he was quite young our family would ofter see your family at Church and at Holy Name of Mary School. Some of my sisters were in the same classes as the girls in your family. I shall let them know about Paul's sudden death. You are all in our thoughts and prayers at this sad time.

Dear Paul,
How incomprehensible your passing.
We spent the summer in 1996. I stayed at Frans and Maria's house at first. Frans and Maria had driven an old school bus deep into a bit of forest. You and Kevin used to hang out there and made drawings on the walls. Sitting there I remember wondering about you and wanting to meet you. Once I did, I felt very welcomed by you and your family. You had a positive influence on me. You may have adopted some different views later on in life, I don’t know, but I will always remember you as a very warm and subtle man who had a great interest in understanding the world and a great interest in other people. I thought you were pretty smart and interested, looking deeper into layers, past the surface, just to get inspired by the revelation of some inner beauty or magic. Never motivated by material gains or power but motivated to experience, know and understand. Even more motivated to understand than to be understood. More to know than to be known. More to see than to be seen. This is a beautiful soul. I found you to be an astute observer at times who also made some good predictions. As time passed and new developments occurred, you had sometimes already predicted those developments back in ’96.
I figured you were longing for a deep connection to your surroundings, while at the same time requiring a safe distance. Perhaps to safeguard your unusually loving and also vulnerable, authentic self. Properties have a tendency to balance themselves out. This life surely is quite the journey and I guess we are all plural souls, having contradictory needs at the same time.
We visited a festival and stayed at the camp site. We drove there in a big old car, typical for north America. We played Frank Zappa albums, and all the weirdest stuff we could find. All the way to the point where the sounds were no longer even rhythmic or melodious and therefore i.m.o. no longer music. I thought of you often during my life, because it was an influential time, and I will continue to do so. I wish you peace and love dear Paul, and I wish the same plus strength to your loving family. Goodbye Paul, Joep Kops
PS: I want to upload some pictures of us together being pretty young, but I recently moved and the album must be in a box somewhere, I can't find it a.t.m. but i will upload when I do.
