Parcourez la nécrologie de Jan Mertens 2023 résidant dans la province Ontario pour le détail des funérailles

Jan Mertens of Alliston passed on October 10, 2023 at the age of 82. Dearly beloved husband (of 54 years) of Anne, and much-loved brother of Wim Schweer (Ann, Jon & Jodee) and Pat Strazdinis & Brooke (Australia). Jan is survived by his family in Spain, Henk Castens (Djoke), and in the Netherlands Wil Nieboer (Henk), Maarten Zier (Hettie) and Marianne VanTholen (Henk). He will also be missed by his dear friends Jeff Wirz and Deanna Marchione.
Born in Dutch East Indies just before the start of WW2, and after war camp time, Jan’s formative years in Indonesia were spent enjoying holidaying & traveling to TRETES, his fun summer holiday town in East Java. He then received his higher education in the Netherlands, living initially with his [paternal] family in Amsterdam. He also met at that time that girl, his future wife Anne. Education sent him for 2 years to the Zeevaards School in Groningen. This was followed by 2 years as Ship Engineer for the Royal InterOcean Lines, where he was so fortunate in travelling/cruising from Japan, via Indonesia to Australia and via South Africa to South America and back. Those were his greatest working “holidays” ever. Upon returning to Holland, he met up with that girlfriend and married her (1969) just before emigrating to Canada. The two built a life first in Mississauga and moved then to Adjala. From there, he spread his wings. He became VP (Canada), distribution for Capital EMI records. With the loving support of his wife, he created LEO INDUSTRIES (CANADA), from where he retired to their estate in Adjala. They continued living in retirement there until a series of events forced a move permanently to Alliston, Ontario. Due to medical issues and after a short stay at Stevenson Memorial Hospital, Jan passed peacefully.
A Celebration of Jan’s life will be held on Sunday, October 29, 2023, from 1:30 pm-3:30 pm. Friends and family will gather together to share their stories of him at the Good Samaritan Retirement Lodge,(481 Victoria St E, Alliston). Online condolences and memories may be left for the family at www.RodAbramsFuneralHome.com.
