Jos was the quintessential 'Flying Dutchman". (But not the scary one!) Roaming across borders and oceans to work alongside fellow WS shipmates, Jos motivated and encouraged everyone he came in contact with. He relaunched Skills Netherlands, and built EuroSkills from the ground up. His stated objective, as incoming WS President, was to help bolster other ships in the WS fleet, and chart a more sustainable course for WorldSkills into the future. He did his work with a smile, and without raising his voice or issuing orders. He will be sorely missed. My condolences to his family, friends and the WS community. RIP Jos.
