    Dear family of Janet ,
    It was wonderful to be able to nurse and care for your mom and grandmother at the Villa while I worked there . We would sing in Dutch at bedtime each evening the Dutch children’s prayer together. She loved it! …… With a big smile on her face . She let me use my limited Dutch language with her as we bonded together in love . May God comfort you with His Presence , Love and Peace.
    Revelation 21:4,5 ; love in Christ !

    Gerrit & Dianne and the entire Soer family
    So very sorry for your loss. Although it has been several years, I always enjoyed your mom’s visit to the dealership. Occasionally she would bring us some apples – I think to sweeten us up! She was a wonderful lady and will be missed. Hold tight to the many memories of a life well lived.
