>Koen Piller has passed away. Today I received this message by regular mail.

>He had, since a couple of years, cancer. He is from 1945.

>He lived very very nearby and occasionally we visited each other. Also, although he retired 10 years ago, he continued to write code in vfp as a hobby.
>
>There was an extra personal connection, because both our roots are from Jewish Amsterdam. Although in-familiar connections were not found, both our grandparents will have known each other quite well, living in the same Jewish Amsterdam quarter.
