Condolences to all of the family. My Mom, Tjitske Vink, has fond memories of Roelie from lots of time spent together in Edmonton, years ago, Including much laughter.

Hi Van Eerden family, my condolences to all of you, we have such great memories of your mom. Your parents were there for us when we immigrated, we slept over the first night and they helped us with getting mattresses and necessities until our container arrived. They were such a blessing .We have spent many Sunday’s after church for coffee and hamburgers, birthdays with the sisters and the babies, mom’s baking and her down to earth practical mom stuff, I loved your Mom
Coby, my heart aches for you. Parents die too early, regardless their age but as Christians, we grieve with a smile in our eyes. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Hilda
