Today we are attending the memorial service of a good friend and ex business colleague who died tragically in a skiing accident in Zermatt just before Christmas. As the actual funeral was in a place called Parpan near Chur on the afternoon of 24th December many people were unable to make the trip.
This memorial event was also scheduled for Parpan but when they discovered how many people would attend the location was changed to near the Global HQ in Schindelleggi which meant a 90 minute train ride.
The memorial service was very moving with well over 100 people from all over the world attending and the two teenage boys of Roland made such brilliant tributes to their dad it was quite heartbreaking. The words from many other business colleagues and family members will be remembered by us for quite some while.
Roland Rest in Peace
