Dorothy and me are so sorry to hear this sad news. Well do we remember meeting he and his wife when Jack add Marie were visiting them while they still were at the farm. Both Martin and Helena were a delight to meet and with whom to visit. We enjoyed our lovely cup of tea and delicious sweets Helena served us. Evelyn kept us up to date with their health and the visits she and Jon had with them. The family have lost a wonderful man!

Dear Helen and Teresa and all your family: our condolences to you on the loss of Martin. He and my Dad were such good friends from the beginning—meeting during their emigration from Holland—I imagine Dad was right there to greet him on the other side.

Condolence from Ray and Judy Mills on February 1st, 2016 7:25 PM

Mrs. Korevaar, Teresa, Mary, Linda, Angela, Mark and families;
Please accept my deepest sympathy at this time. I remember first meeting your family, especially Teresa and then Mary, when I entered Grade 1 at S.S. #9, Biddulph. You were a hard working family and got your strong work ethic from your father and mother. I always respected what Mr. & Mrs. Korevaar did (moving to a foreign country), starting a dairy business from nothing, having minimum road access to the property for several years (oh how I disliked that swinging bridge) , learning a new language and raising a family in a different environment. I always found your parents to be friendly, kind and gentle people. I have not had a chat with your Mrs. Korevaar since she moved to London, but did enjoy meeting with her on the streets of Exeter or in a store on occasion. I am thinking of you and your family as you grieve the passing of your father. God bless.

I am very sorry for your loss.
