After a long illness in which it became increasingly difficult, Heinz passed away on April 12.
You lasted a long time Heinz. Almost exactly a year ago I was convinced that it was only a matter of a few more weeks at most.
On April 8, during our last visit to you, we knew this was a farewell.
The only consolation we can take from it is that he will be spared further pain.

The Dutch magic world, while many probably do not realize or know it, loses one of the most famous figures in the magic world. Who didn't know Heinz?
From Asia to America. Everyone knew Heinz and Heinz knew everyone.
And certainly not just because he was a dealer…
For the latest news and facts you had to go to Heinz.
Everyone, from top to bottom, appreciated Heinz for who he was. Bold and free and without frills. What you saw was what you got.

45 years of “real” friendship and not a “Facebook friendship” is not nothing. It was a big part of his and our lives.

Paul Thys and I (and many others) will miss you enormously. Even though we knew it was coming, it hurts enormously.

Animae dimidium meae.
Half of my soul, a good friend leaves.

We sympathize with the grief of your mother, your brother and your loved ones.

RIP Mr. Minten.
