Hendrick Van Nood Obituary
In loving memory of Hendrik van Nood, who passed away peacefully on Monday, September 16, 2024 at Extendicare in Haliburton. Hendrik was in his 96th year. Predeceased by his wife Rosa (2009). Loving father of Robert (Lesley English), Donald (Jane, predeceased) and Richard (Shelley). Proud Opa to Stuart (Christina), Andrew (Melanie), Daniel (Krista), Brandon (Lina), Brittney (Trevor), and Adam (Kim). Thrilled to be Overgrootvader to Jacob, Hannah, Quinn, and Charles. Predeceased by his brothers Maurits, Pieter, and Frans in Holland.
Henk lived through WW2 in Holland and served with the Dutch army in Indonesia before immigrating to Toronto, Canada in 1954. He arrived in Canada only knowing two people and speaking no English. Rosa followed shortly after. Summers were spent landscaping and winters driving an oil truck. The family moved to Haliburton in 1974, originally as co-owners of Deer Lodge and then owners of The Driftwood Restaurant, which they ran successfully for a number of years. After selling the restaurant Henk took up carpentry with Ron Sisson Contracting until his retirement.
When Rosa became unwell, he took on her care with a dedication second to none. When she moved into Extendicare, he became a full-time volunteer at Extendicare for many years up to and beyond her passing. His quick smile and twinkling eyes were a constant at Extendicare for 22 years.
As many can attest to, Henk loved his cards. Tuesday nights in West Guilford and later, Mondays at Park Lane Apartments. He instilled this love in his children and grandchildren. Christmas morning will be much quieter without his enthusiasm.
