She was born in Groningen, the Netherlands on October 11 th , 1948 to Trijntje Jansma and Klaas Kooistra. She was the 11 th of 12 children. Julie was very musically talented and played 7 different instruments. Her main love was playing the organ. She volunteered most of her life playing organ during church services and other occasions. Mom loved God, people and was passionate about Israel. Mom was creative in many ways; performing, gardening, home renovations, and sowing to name a few. On May 10 th , 1974 she married the love of her life Kor, started dairy farming together with Kor and they were blessed with four children. They remained on the Bouwman family farm until the 26 th of June 1996 when the family emigrated to Canada and settled in Ponoka. They continued farming until 2003 and then moved off the farm but remained in the country until Kor’s passing.
