Obituary notice - Friday, December 20, we were plunged into deep mourning as it enabled the Lord to take away our beloved son after a brief but very serious illness. Willem, in the youthful age of more than 19 years. This loss weighs heavily on us, but we wish to acknowledge in the doing of our God. Whose work is only upright and majesty, and turn to Him for comfort.
We wish to express our heartfelt thanks for the feelings of sympathy and assistance we experienced in these days of mourning, both from close relatives and from neighbors, who met us personally or expressed their sorrow by letter. Mr. and Mrs. R. Vellinga Carnes IA.
