Back to 1983

Hi Johan,

I was just reviewing some old pictures from 1983, holidays in Spain. Is it possible that you are the son of Joop van Soest & Wilhelmina de Vries?

Upon visiting you and your family a couple of years later (1988), I believe they mentioned you joined the Royal Dutch Air Force and became a fighter pilot.

Anyhow, that's a long time ago.

Send me regards to your parents,

Carlos LOWIE (carlos.lowie@skynet.be) and Mireille SAELENS, Heleen & Julie
