Harry was born in Dieden, the Netherlands, and as a young, twenty-two-year-old man, immigrated to Canada in May 1954. He came from a farming background and together with Mary, successfully achieved goals of owning a farm, raising their family, watching them prosper and enjoying retirement.
His strong work ethic, tenacity, sense of adventure, competitive spirit, fun-loving harmless mischief and generosity have been appreciated and passed on to his kin.
A life blessed and well lived…
