In Memoriam
Very Suddenly on the 15th of Jun 1926 our beloved father Mr. Job Ypma, at the age of 75 years was call to eternal glory, to the mansion which God has prepared for him. Our hearts bleed and the wounds are very painful when God separates earthly ties, but God has also given us grace to look beyond the cross to the crown, and we rejoice that he is now enjoying eternal rest. Remaining to await our Lord’s call home - The children.
