Translation of the above letter.June 6, 1981
Dear Boris Borgstrøm
Only now we learn - through the highly restrictive press -that your father, Ernst Borgstrøm, is deceased.
Danish Accordion Players' National Association want with these few lines to express sincere participation in the sorrow of Ernst Borgstrøms passing away, and the Board, as well as many many members have asked the business committee to inform you and your family of our deepest sympathy.
Ernst Borgstrøms efforts in the Danish accordion development through a very long period, made him a Danish music history personality, and that he, in addition also reached that mark in Canada, emphasizes his capability.
Ernst was a groundbreaking pioneer, and we in the Danish Accordion Players' Federation is proud to be able to call us his country men, - we will always honor his memory.
On behalf of the DHL members, Business committe and members of the Board,
Jeanette & Lars Dyremose
