It was not uncommon for Jelle to reap the rewards and walk away with many trophies and awards, and most of the attendees and fellow exhibit creators would take the time to "take notes" on how to prepare a proper display!

​

Our President prepared a Letter of Condolences on behalf of the Society, which was passed on to the Lammers Family.

​

The following note was received for reprint from the Lammers Family:

​

Dear members of the Conchological Society,

​

Thank you for your letter of condolences with Lammie's passing. In his retirement the shells were his big passion. He used to start planning in January for the July exhibition. Keep on being the inspiration for each other.

​

Regards,

Chrissie Lammers and family
