Subject: Members' news
Dear Lowlanders,
As our friend Reuben Epp kindly informed me, another important voice for
Plautdietsch (Mennonite Low Saxon) has been silenced. One-time Lowlands-L
member Herman Rempel of Morden, Manitoba, Canada, born in 1915, passed away
on October 11, 2008.
Please read his obituary here:
http://www.wiebefuneralhomes.com/2008/herman_rempel.htm
While I am sad that our active, old friend has passed on and away from us, I
am happy to know that his passing was kind and gentle.
Herman's engagement for his language is legendary. One of the great services
he rendered is his on-line dictionary "Kjenn Jie noch Plautdietsch?":
http://www.mennolink.org/doc/lg/l
Herman often posted information about his language during his tenure as a
member of Lowlands-L.
Regards,
Reinhard/Ron
