Passing of a True Gammisti

[oldgamma19]

Dear Gammisti!

Greetings, taken from www.gammaforum.com
for those of you attended Mega Gamma Meeting in Torino 2009

from don camillo

It´s bee a time since I wisited the forum. I´ve been on the move to the US, but just as I returned back to Norway for the summer, I got an sms form a good friend, telling the sad news that his father in law, Sigvalde Neerland, died on june 29.

For those of you who don´t know who Sigvalde was, I can tell you that he was the owner of the blue series I Berlina that is seen on Ruuds gallery. Sigvalde was on a plane to Italy just as the Gamma Berlina was launched. During the flight he read an ad for the car, and the first thing he did after landing in Italy, was to find the local dealer and buy the car. Due to the huge cartaxrates on import to Norway, he kept the car on the Continent until it was 15 years old, and then he imported it.

The car has been well taken care of, and frequently used up til today. Sigvalde together with son and grandson drove the Berlina to Italy for the 100. aniversary.

This year he was operated for throuth-cancer. He was recovering well when got pneumonia, and then the doctors discovered methastasis. He returned to hospital last week, and died after only a few days thare, on june 29. - 82 years old.

Peace be with Sigvalde.

Could Sigvalde sleep in peace.
My personal pray for his family too.
