R.I.P - Kees Jan Koster (1964-2014)
Unfortunately today we received the message that Kees Jan Koster passed away. His illness already prevented him to do the things he liked to do the most. Kees Jan was a long time volunteer with STIWOT, primarilly with the WW2Awards.com project. During meetings and conventions he always managed to inspire others by his good spirit. Besides a fine volunteer we most of all loose a friend. Many of us have known him personally and his work for us will never be forgotten.
On behalf of all STIWOT volunteers, we wish his wife, children, relatives and friends much strength with this terrible loss.
