With my most heartfelt sympathies, I offer my deepest condolences to the Dietrich family. Jürgen was a kind and thoughtful man who was always quick with a joke and a smile on his face. He was proud to be a perfectionist in his job, and loved a great car! I am glad to have known him. He will be missed.

Christine said it all and I can only add that he was a charming gentleman with a quick sense of humour. I enjoyed several luncheons with him exchanging our memories of Germany and Wuppertal. Thinking of his family in this sad time.

Dear Anneliese, Hartmut and Oliver.
We are very saddened by Jurgen ‘s passing.
Will never forget how Jurgen was skeptical about our union, since Anneliese was the culprit who got Christian and me together ❤! It was a very quick and beautiful union to welcome me into the wonderful group of caring and loving German people who still today we call our dear friends. Jurgen you will be missed and we love you. Thinking of you Anneliese, Hartmut and Oliver and family!!

Our deepest sympathies to the Dietrich Family. Jurgen was a great man who will always have a special place in my heart. He taught me much as a youngster growing up on Otter with his son Oliver, my best friend. I will never forget our times at the cottage where you taught me about ‘Going with the Flow’. I am fortunate to have spent the time with you that I did, your smile will always be with me. Our thoughts are with your family.

A devoted husband, a caring and supportive father to his two sons, and a loving grandfather to his two grandsons, Jurgen Dietrich will be sadly missed but never forgotten by those who both knew and loved him. Death has always been a tragic event, but even more so when an extra special human being like Jurgen Dietrich has been taken away from us. My deepest condolences to the Dietrich family, especially to my dear friend and publisher Hartmut Dietrich who I know is suffering greatly over the loss of his father.

We will miss Juergen so much, a friend we had all our life . We all rented in one house on Indian Grove in Toronto,
when we came to Canada and met Anneliese and Juergen there. We had many good times together , but also tried helping each other, when needed.
We wish Anneliese, Oliver and Hartmut , Kirsten, Markus and Thomas the peace and comfort they deserve after these very trying times.
Hartmut, you have been a wonderful son to your father, may that be of comfort to you now,. You and KIrsten simply could not have done more. Oliver, you tried with many visits to cheer your parents up .
We are also sure, that your Dad knew , that his sons were there for him even in his last hours.

Herzliches Beileid für Anneliese ,Hartmut und Oliver und Familien. Leider hatten wir die letzten Jahre wenig Kontakt da ich die Anschrift von Jürgen verloren hatte aber dann habe ich im Internet Hartmuts Adresse gfunden.
Ich wünsche euch allen viel Kraft in der nächsten Zeit.
Jürgen war der letzte Dietrich hier in Wuppertal. Leb wohl mein lieber Vetter.

Hiermit möchte auch ich mein herzliches Beileid für Anneliese, Hartmut und Oliver aussprechen.
Ich war 1983 mit Jürgens Vater 5 Wochen bei der Familie zu Besuch. Es war eine schöne Zeit für mich.
Leider hatte auch ich keine Adresse mehr um Kontakt aufzunehmen, aber durch Helmut Bonnemeier
habe ich von Jürgens Tod erfahren.
Ich wünsche der Familie viel Kraft mit dem schmerzlichen Verlust umzugehen.

Liebe Anneliese, Hartmut & Oliver, unser herzliches Beileid für den Verlust von Eurem Mann/Vater.
Jürgen und ich (auch Jürgen) waren Nachbarskinder in Wuppertal im gleichen Haus. Wie hatten viel miteinander unternommen, bis Jürgen nach Kanada auswanderte. Der Kontakt riss aber nie ab. 2 mal besuchte uns Jürgen
in Dortmund und auch Anneliese war mit Hartmut 1980 bei uns.
Ich besuchte ihn 1975 und hatte tolle 3 Wochen mit ihm, Anneliese & Jürgens Vater. (und Christine)
Das letzte Mal war ich mit meiner Familie 2014 bei Ihm in Oakville.
Liebe Anneliese und Familie, denkt an alle schönen Zeiten zurück und er wird uns allen immer in bester Erinnerung bleiben. Alles erdenklich Gute für Euch.
Jürgen Hofmann mit Christel, Sandra & Frank.
