"Uncle Dutch" was a sweet, gentle man, who was kind to all his nieces and nephews, even if we were of a "step" relationship. I remember him taking us for rides on the sand dunes of Samoa, in his old open jeep. After he'd passed, my Aunt Edith gave me a bamboo knick-knack set of shelves that she said had come from his family, because "Uncle Dutch and I had gotten on so well." I treasure that little shelf to this day.
