With your beginnings in the Netherlands, you have created a wonderful interest for your family in the history of our non-United States born family. To learn the history of where we came from is a gift you left to us. We have learned just how much the Lord loves His children as the gospel of Jesus Christ spreads across the world. Your parents and Grandparents set a wonderful example of faith as they heard the missionaries and were touch by the spirit to know of its truthfulness. Your part in this was to remain faithful throughout your life as an example to your family of the sacrifices it takes to follow the Lord and live in righteousness.
You passed away way to soon. At only fifty-nine years old, not all of your grandchildren got to know you. But some of us did. To me, you were a wonderful lady who tried your best to show your family the love you felt for them. Thank you for the legacy you left for us, and for the example of living a faithful life. Love, always and forever.
