Bert was born in Anjum, Friesland and immigrated to Clinton, Ontario when he was 7 years old where he lived for the rest of his earthly life. He was one of the best, loved and respected by so many people. He had an infectious smile with a big heart. He took over the family farm and established Frieshaven Farms where his love of farming flourished. He appreciated God’s creation and was able to enjoy the view from the seat of a tractor. Along with farming, Bert was involved with many service groups and community organizations and spent over 20 years’ time in municipal politics serving as Councillor, Deputy Reeve, Reeve, and Warden. He was very proud of his accomplishments while humbly serving the community.
The true joy of his life was being with his family. Above all he loved the Lord and we can have comfort that he is with Jesus!
