Announcement Concerning the Passing of Jim Von Gremp

Hola El Tigre Golfers,

This morning, I received tragic news concerning the passing of our dear friend and fellow golfer, Jim Von Gremp. As many of you might know, Jim had valiantly fought a long battle with cancer for the last 6+ years. In addition to being a good friend, Jim was also a neighbor of mine at Playa Royale and we spent many years working together in various governance roles in support of the greater Playa Royale community. Jim is survived by his wife Susan who was always Jim’s anchor and soulmate throughout their marriage and especially during his long and difficult battle with cancer. Susan provided many of us with regular updates concerning Jim’s ever evolving cancer odyssey, for which we were always very grateful for. Jim was much loved and admired by all golfers and he will be sorely missed by all of us. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Susan and the family.

We will have an opportunity early next year to have a formal Memorial golf event where we will be able to remember and pay tribute to Jim, as well as other fellow golfers that have recently passed.  Additional information concerning this event will be forthcoming later this year.

With deep sorrow,

Markus
