Lieve Elly, kinderen en kleinkinderen. Heel veel sterkte met dit verlies. Wij hopen dat jullie de kracht krijgen dit verlies te verwerken.
February 1, 2019Dear Elly, somebody told me that your husband Joop has passed away on the 29 Jan 2019, I looked it up on the internet. Our condolences and pitty that over the years we didn’t have contact anymore, but that certainly wasn’t my fault. I have never understood the reason, however in a way I always regarded you as family, but not from your side, sorry. Ko.
February 2, 2019Poppy/Opa we love you so much.

You taught me from an early age that family isn’t always blood. I will always remember your big bear hugs and your bristley kisses.
Not sure if I’ll get to see you off yet but know you and Nanna will be in our hearts on the day.
Lots of Love
Melinda, Ebony, Mikayla, Rylan, Aidyn, Xayth and EmmyttThoughts with you at this sad time

Last time I saw you, you had been gardening in your clogs. * I loved that* you inspired Nikiiah to grow “cacti”.
