Harry,Barb,Ed and Suzel and all the Herrmann family,you have our deepest sympathy. Karl was a great friend to my father Fred, and a warm and friendly host on our visits up north. I wish we could play one more game of darts and Alan wishes he could hear the "old Germans" tell their stories one more time :) . Sorry we could not attend, but know that you and your father are in our thoughts and prayers. Anita and Alan Burns
