Thread: Henk Bos dead

Rest in peace my friend.

When we started this thread we thought it would be a long time before we started to fill it and now the list continues to grow, how sad.

I'm very sorry to hear of another passing.

We will keep him Henk in our thoughts and in that sense he will always be alive.

My condolences to you and your family, may you cherish the memories.

Rest in peace Henk Bos

@Janneke and the Bos family: my deepest sympathy.
Henk was a remarkable man. I met him and his wife once when they came to have supper with us on their way to Scandinavia where he would explore what was left of natural hone quarries and mines and talk to people who had extracted the stones. They traveled in an old Volkswagen van powered with solar panels that would allow them to survive almost anywhere in world. He was a very enthusiastic and knowledgeable collector of natural sharpening stones.

A true gentleman. I have exchanged several emails with him, so got some idea of the man. My first badger brush came from him 15 years ago and to this day looks beautiful. Condolences.

I'm so sorry to hear about your loss :) he sounds like he was a great man and that he touched many lives from many countries. I am happy to hear that his work will be continued on and/or finished.

Thank you for letting us know.

Deepest Condolences to you and your family.
