Great idea, and Sunray has the right approach. Good call.

As July draws to a close and Leon back in the office, it might be time to  carefully word the approach Aart's family and seek their permission to commission the Aart Brouwer Memorial  trophy.

I forgot to post that the card went out several weeks ago now, with the message from the Forum members in it.

We actually had a new member join a while ago, under the name Wendel Brouwer, so I'm not sure if it's a relation or not.  The member hasn't posted anything yet.

Here I am, I am indeed a relation of Aart Brouwer. His wife to be precise. I joined the forum to thank you for the nice card I received from Pendraken and the forum but to be honest...I forgot. Things have been quite hectic out here.

So thank you for the card, I felt warmed! Aart was a big fan of Pendraken, he sometimes drove me crazy with the numerous packages that arrived almost every day but I also loved it to see him so enthusiastic. He had the whole attic stashed with projects. Unfortunately, he didn't have the chance to finish it.

Hi Wendel,
I'm glad that the card and the messages on this forum helped in some small way.

Hi Wendel, thanks for the post, and welcome to the Forum.  I'm glad to hear the card arrived safely as well.
