Fellow Rheinbergen citizens. I greet you all and hope you are well. We live in testing times. Some of you may face illness, others financial hardship. Some of you may lose loved ones. We all are touched by this terrible virus. Do not underestimate our enemy. But, do not fear either. Do not line up in front of super markets or even go out and by guns. Do the contrary: line up to help the elderly and ill by shopping for them. Go out and sing to your neighbors like our Italian friends do. Go and spend time with your families. We can come out of this terrible crisis a better species and better persons. Stay strong and be positive that better times are awaiting us. With love, Gerardus
