That Man Is A Success
Who has lived well, laughed often and loved much.
Who has gained the respect of intelligent men and the love of children.
Who has filled his niche, and accomplished his task.
Who leaves the world better than he found it,
Whether by an improved flower, a perfect poem or a rescued soul.
Who never lacked appreciation of earthly beauty or failed to express it.
Who looked for the best in others, and gave the best he had.

He was predeceased by his parents, son-in-law Bart van Biezen (1989), brother Rudolph (1958), sister Alma (1993), and brother Edward (2010). He is survived by his wife Julia Pekse, daughter Sandra van Biezen, and numerous nieces and nephews.
