Hello,
Please accept my deepest sympathies to the entire Sabel family.
I moved to Chicago not too long after Hans and his office was right outside my desk. I had the pleasure of exchanging National Park travel stories with Hans as we both shared a joy for family adventures and the outdoors. Additionally I recall a customer meeting we both attended in California and it was fun listening to him passionately speak about the mapping world and his immense knowledge based on his years of experience. I especially appreciated his sense of humor. He will be missed. Prayers for peace and comfort during this difficult time.
Sincerely,
Trevor

De ochtendlijke koffies op 12 zijn anders zonder jou, de snelle revu over recente ontwikelingen of voorvallen, altijd getint door jouw visie 😊 , maar ook je trotse verhalen over je gezin, je kinderen, over hun studies en werk.
Hans we missen het, de gedachten leven voort.....

Unglaublich! Unfassbar! Unverständlich!
Knowing Hans for 25 years, I can't believe what I hear. It was always a pleasure to work with Hans, his cooperative and pragmatic style of getting things done and his friendly and lively personality. I will miss him.
My thoughts are with his wife and his family.
I will light a candle in the Hildesheimer Dom for Hans tonight.

Dear Mrs. Marja, I would like to express my closeness to you with my poor prayers in this terrible circumstance. Hans was my colleague for 22 years and, when I started at Navtech in my 1st days in Best, I was hit by his smiling and welcoming attitude to me. Hans was always careful and respectful with each individual colleague, first considering the person than the role. The positive memory of him will remain in me. If I can express myself, his painful departure is jointed by the certainty that his life lasts forever and that you and your family experience his presence in your hearts. My best regards, Riccardo

Lieve Hans,
Jetty en ik zijn erg geschrokken dat je er ineens niet meer bent.
Heel erg bedankt voor je jarenlange vriendschap.
Hopelijk ben je nu op een fijne plek.
Veel sterkte voor Marja, kinderen en familie.
Liefs Jetty en Rita

Dear Hans,

I was deeply saddened when I have heard about your passing.
We have worked for almost 13 years together, we meet on different locations and we always had fun.
No matter how difficult the task was we have discussed our conversations ended most with a joke or a sayings in one of the languages we spook, and the equivalent translation to each other.
For sure not always grammatically correct but we ended our calls/meetings always with a smile in our face. I will keep you in my memories as my international multilingual Dutch colleague.

You have been a truly good person, and your positive impact will be missed by all.

My condolences to your family during this challenging time.
Ciao
Javier
