Wow - that is such shocking, sad news. RIP koen, and my condolences to the family. I always enjoyed his enthusiasm for the hobby that was quite evident in his posts.
There are very few posts I dislike to read on Coin Talk, but this news about Koen is one of them. My condolences to you, his wife and especially his children. My next thought of him will be in hopeful prayer.
My condolences to the family. I never talked to him personally, but I enjoyed reading his posts and he seemed very pleasant and easy going. My thoughts and prayers go out to the family.
There is a thread I started In memory of Koen http://www.cointalk.com/t205203/#post1427078. Please help if you can.
Very sad. I really liked koen. He was a tremendous supporter of my work, and a very pleasant person. This really saddens me.
Rest in Peace My condolences to Koen's family and all his friends. CoinTalk and the numismatic community will be a lesser place without Koen.

RIP Koen,you will be missed!
I was very sad to hear the news. My condolences go out to the family. Having lost a brother myself in a car accident I know how you feel. RIP Koen.
Herman, I am very sorry to hear of this tragedy. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this dark hour. Your brother was a well respected member of this and other on-line communities.
