Don Lange's Final Performance: "Going Back to My Homeland."

[@loisfruik229]

God's timing is a beautiful thing. It happens over and over, because God in His graciousness will show that He is with you, and He knows how hard this is going to be. So He shows Himself in wonderful ways. And here is living proof. A classic performance that will be timeless in your family's history. There is no more comforting music than this song. May your faith be strengthened and your hearts be comforted. Also last night's live performance showed your total energy and commitment to polka music. Love those accordions and trumpets and anything else you want to throw in there. God bless and keep you all, even through this blessed Thanksgiving and Christmas season. Keep the faith. Hugs. From the Fruiks in Ironwood, MI.

I wish I had such a dad. Many of us have had no relationship at all. You were truly blessed. Only when greatly LOVED can you enjoy any sorrow of a lost.

I am sorry for your loss Ted & Mollie, thank you guys for everything you do.

[@jkrpa2008]

Ted & Mollie, sending our deepest condolences and respects to your Dad, you and family during this difficult season of transition. I lost my Dad two years ago and I remember our Dads knowing each other from their years at GM. While it is such a hard time for you, have solace in the fact that your Dad is with our Heavenly Father - fully restored and revitalized. He is at the greatest PEACE anyone will ever know. Prayers to all of you for calm, peace, perseverance, strength and His Love.

[@johnpiatchek2626]

Ted our prayers are with you and Mollie in your time of loss. You both come from some great stock. We have immensely enjoyed your Tuesday evening live-streams. We grew up in South St Louis listening to polkas at all the weddings. My brother and I brought in the German Waterloo Band for my folks 30th wedding anniversary along With the large German pretzels. My Grandfather, Father and Brother were all accomplished accordion players. I can still play one song. My wife Diana just celebrated our 52nd anniversary. We tried to get you to come in for our 50th, but you were booked. Keep up the great music and again our sadness in your loss. John and Diana Piatchek. Springfield Mo.

Our most sincere and deepest sympathy to you, Ted, and your mother upon your dad's passing. How precious to have this moment to cherish and the song he sang was so (unknowingly at the time) appropriate. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your mother at this difficult time. May God's love abound. Peace. Howard and Carol Meyer

[@brianbrinkman7964]

That turned out to be a just in time performance, and even when I watched it in the original video I thought Ted's mom had the concerned look of a caregiver. God bless all of you and thank you for including your parents in these shows!

[@MollieB]

Thank you!

[@elizabethglembocki8278]

Vic from CT. so saddened by your loss. My prayers are with all of his family. The first time I saw him was on his last performance with the two of you. He seemed so happy and just a nice guy. Him putting his arm around his wife as he was singing, showed so much of the love for each other.

The German wish of condolence is "Herzliches Beileid" which literally means heartfelt co-suffering. As a former polka performer I share not only your personal loss but the loss to the polka community. God be with you all.
