Quo Vadis? Where are you going? One's path in life? As a sailor, on the open ocean, Pieter could go anywhere on earth. He was on a journey, and we loved to be a part of it. Our connection with him went to our hearts and any place he went. He spoke to us, encouraged us, and whatever journey we take, we will do it together and forever. His boat - Quo Vadis, a metaphor for life's journey, a voyage we all take, with a final destination not always known. Goodbye Pieter. |
