      They couldn’t be bothered to proofread the letter. It’s somewhat disrespectful

        Clearly English isn’t the first language of the writer. How disrespectful to invite members of the community to his funeral services indeed.

          So being Dutch means you can’t use spellcheck or get someone else to double-check? My native language is Afrikaans, which is 95% Dutch, but my social media posts are still more thorough than this announcement

          This isn’t a tweet. It’s announcing someone’s death

          In my experience, Dutch speak better English than most people from the US.
