To all of the family, I send my condolences. May you find comfort knowing that Joe was a good man, and now rests peacefully in the arms of the Lord.
My condolences to the entire family and extended family. I sat near Joe and Johanna in church and truly enjoyed their company. We visited a few times for coffee after church and he loved to talk about his family. He helped me with some information I was seeking on the Dutch who immigrated to Canada. He was a caring person with a wonderful sense of humour. He will be missed. Rest in peace Joe.
Sorry to learn of the loss of your father Mary and Diane…always remember his great sense of humour. Condolences to the very large family circle.

Voor al mijn nichten en neef, alsook voor alle kleinkinderen en achterkleinkinderen wens ik jullie veel sterkte toe de komende tijd. Zoek steun bij elkaar. Haal veel herinneringen op, die zijn er genoeg gemaakt denk ik met veel grappige verhalen. Ome Sjef was een man met veel woorden en grappen.
