Hi Willy, I noticed on your blog ur based in Oregan now. How funny, I’m based in Seattle, WA. Alot of former top fashion models I worked with during the day also reside here in the pacific northwest. I guess after traveling around the globe from Europe to NY, we enjoy the peaceful, slower paced relaxing beauty of this area. =) I have so enjoyed our exchange on your blog and fb and would also like to invite you to my personal fb page if you like. You can find me on there under Cathy McNew Metschar. I hope to keep in touch!! xo Cat
Hi Willy, Have you got my message earlier, with the greetings of my mother, your unckles doughter?
Greetings, Peter Heij
Hi Peter, nee, message niet gekregen. Your mother the daughter of my uncle? From ome Joop? Ja dat moet wel, heel leuk en nee jammer genoeg… mischien kun je het nog een keer sturen? Are you on Facebook? you can find me there, many greeting for you and of course your mom, my niece? Love and Peace
Hi Willy,
I did send you the massage through LinkedIn.
Ja, het moet ome Joop (Johan van der Splinter) zijn. Jouw nicht, zijn dochter/mijn moeder, is Willy van der Splinter. Zij herinnert jou en je zusters Nellie en Lisa nog heel goed wanneer ze op bezoek was bij oma, begin jaren veertig. Ze doet jullie dus de groeten en hoopt dat alles goed gaat.
And yes, I am on Facebook, and also one of you likes, maar dit bericht vond ik teveel prive om op FB te zetten.
Love & Peace to you as well, en vele groeten!
Peter
Hi Willy.
I was sorting through photographs the other day and came across one I had taken of you in my Chelsea Studio when you first arrived. It was simply a ‘test’ shot and perhaps the first photograph taken of you in London. It’s very beautiful and thought you might like to have it. Send me an email address and I will send.
I’m delighted to see – only recently – of your great success in the fashion world since those charming days of the 60s and 70s.
I remain in good health and have daughters and grandchildren. I now have many friends in Holland and spend much time there.
Groetjes.
Malcolm.
