Daphne Farquharson
September 6, 2008
Today we were notified of a terribly sad thing.
Our friend Daphne Farquharson was found dead in her parent’s house in Badhoevedorp.
Words can’t express what a loss this is.
Daphne, you will be missed and remembered.
Thanks for the fun times, the wonderful diners, the good book recommendations and the introduction to poker that we had with you! 
We will not forget the fun we had!
Your buddies,
Sylvia and Theo.

Daphne,
I can’t put in words how I feel about this terrible loss of a great life you had ahead of you. I am absolutely shocked, you didnt deserve this daph! I want you to know I am gonna miss you so much cuz!Im glad we got to have a great time at the beach the last time you came. I really hadnt seen you in a while and it was nice to hangout for those couple days.I still cant believe this is real but I know you are up in heaven with Jamie and Poppa Cyril smiling down. I love you Daph!
Poppa Cyril,you have always been a character! With your quick jokes and funny laugh I always loved to have you around. Im gonna miss talking coin jargon with you and the occasional drink prank. Im gonna miss you Uncle!
I love you and will miss you both very deeply,

Daphne, there are no words to describe the fate that you faced. I’m deeply hurt that your life was cut so short. My only solace is knowing you are with James-a- bames again and pappa Cyril. We may never know the full story of your tragic end but I do know that I will see you again one day, Daph. Until then my heart misses you and all the times we could have shared in the years to come.
Uncle Cyril…truly your name sums it up. Your laugh penetrated the crowd and I will miss it. Even though we didn’t see eye to eye on many things, you are my father’s eldest brother and my only Dutch uncle. Your life was cut way to short and for that we are saddened. Your death is NOT your legacy, rather your life was. I’m glad you are with Jamie now. May the true rest of the Lord be on all 3 of you. Until we meet again, you will be missed.
I love you both and your life should never have ended this way or this soon.

I knew Daphne for very short when she first went to delft to do architecture but had to leave soon beacuse of her arm and left friends to maastricht.
I cant say i have known Daphne for a long time, but i surely will miss her. She was a very special person, very intelligent and easy going. She has made some friends in Delft, and now we will deeply miss her, with her funny smile (that would appear every other second0 and her passion for computer games (which we shared in common and spent countless hours on).
That her father went with her is tragic and i can only imagine the loss to family and friends. The world is unfortunately very unfair, and things happen for no reason.
I will always remember Daphne for the brilliant person she was.

I wanted to thank you, Daphne. You’ve always been one of Kevin best friends, and you always supported him when times got hard, I can’t thank you enough for this. When I first met you I misunderstood you, and I didn’t know what to think, but then I got to know you better and I found out what a great and caring person you were. Please help and guide Kevin, for he lost an irreplacable friend and a part of his life in you. May you rest in peace, I will never forget you

Dear Daph and Poppa Cyril.
Poppa Only the Best and most Significant conversations with you flood my mind repeatedly and I can still hear you saying all thru these 10 years of Jamie’s home going to HEAVEN,… “Jeanmarie, surprisingly losing Jamie has not caused me to lose my faith in GOD rather over the years it has strengthened it and I take comfort in my Faith in GOD”…. So I know there was a fantastic Reunion. Poppa there were many sweet deep shared moments that made me feel honoured to see you as a TRUE OLDER BROTHER, Your caring cannot be debated!!
We will miss Much about you, they broke the mold and we used to tease you Thank God they broke the mold in jest, But now your one of a kind personality makes us utter a Sincere Thank God that you were part of our lives!! You were the epitomy of a first born son always and RELENTLESSLY gathering family and friends far and wide. Hey, Say hello to mum and dad Farquie till we ALL meet again. Prepare the place for the great clan gathering up home.
Daph, oh Daph, sweet Dutch Daph, Your HALLMARK of caring recently as you were so seriously and grievously upset with Jody with his recent and frivolous near tragic bike accident,just before Aljohn and Yans Wedding in Jamaica. How your heart hurt and how you cared for family in this and so so many other ways, Poppa taught both you and Jamie the Love of family EXTREMELY well. Who was to know you could depart at 22 so abruptly, You fell asleep after a great night out with friends and my bible declares to be absent from the body is to be present with THE LORD so…I am thus conforted in the security of my faith and Knowing The love Of Jesus for His Precious Little Ones…. I picture when you opened your eyes you were met BY A RADIANT LIGHT in the room and there standing over your bed, Jamie and Poppa smiling, glowing, beckoning You homeward A reunion of indescribable LIQUID LOVE YOUR Close Beloved family to escort you home. Our tears of sorrow their tears of Joy. I hope it”s okay I’m wearing the wrist bracelet you left in your cosmetic bag last month, that you forgot in Miami the one that’s a large Silver CROSS with a leather strap, also the chain and pendant I gave you Christmas gone that you Proudly showed me that you were wearing in Jamaica that has a little set of feet and says… “in HIS steps”… Thanks Daph for being a great kid in a difficult world and having high ideals and the guts to work for them. None of it was in vain, no NONE OF IT we will ever remember you in family gatherings for years to come. We LOVE you we miss you and I’m pleased to have had the honour of being called Aunty Jean..even though You called me Lack a Daisical as well!!!
My love to all till we meet again.Aunty Jeanmarie

I am shocked and speechless, the last I saw you as a little girl on my wedding day, way back in 1996 in India. Daphne I googled you today as your farther, my friend was not answering any mails. I hope to speak to him once I get his telephone number.

Hi Punit,
I’m extremely sad that I have to tell you this. But both Daphne and her dad Cyril Farquharson where found dead in their apartment. I will email you more details. I hate to be the messenger of this cruel news but there’s no nicer way to tell this.

What a terrible shock! Cyril flew with me in Guyana — I particularly remember his wry sense of humour and in those early days his innocent naievity. We did a Caribou flight together to La Paz, Bolivia, and he was a great help & companion aboard the Caribou.Cyril was always lighthearted, humourous and most considerate. Unfortunately We lost touch after moving to Canada 35 years ago. His death is so tragic, particularly the way in which it happened. may they rest in peace.
His father, Jim, was a stalwart and a great support to us all in that little airline, which he managed so well. As someone has just said, it’s a blessing that he was not here to endure this terrible shock, as he had borne much throughout his life.
