Lammie RUMPH

1928 - 2021

On Friday, December 10, 2021, at the age of 93, Lammie Rumph (nee Steenbergen) was received into the loving arms of Jesus. Beloved wife of Henry ✝ (2019) for 70 years.

Lammie Rumph was the 6th child (of 12) born to Hendrik Jan and Margje Steenbergen. She arrived in this world on September 25, 1928. Lammie married Henry on August 29, 1948. They both came from the town of Koekange, in Drenthe, the Netherlands. They left for Canada in September, 1948. They arrived in Quebec and spent the first 2 years in eastern Ontario before they moved to the Drayton/Moorefield area. Mom and Dad farmed there for 22 years before they moved to Grimsby in 1972. Mom spent a lot of time gardening and keeping the lawns in great shape. She enjoyed getting out for her daily walks and bike rides. Mom sewed most of our clothes when we were kids and kept on sewing all kinds of outfits for kids in need till she was 92. She sewed many quilts that were given to the grand and great-grandkids for their 12th birthday. Mom became an avid golfer in the 1980's. Her last year of golfing was 2019. She loved golfing with the ladies group at Sawmill every Tuesday morning and again on Thursdays with many of the friends she made there over the years. She would play golf with her kids and grandkids, sometimes up to 3 times a day, at Chesley Lake Camp where we spent our family week every year. Mom and dad had 8 children, 5 girls and 3 boys. They taught us all to seek the Lord in all things and were a wonderful example to us all. There have been a total of 119 children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. There have been good times and sad times in their lives. Children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren have passed on before them. We thank the Lord for our Mom, our Gramma and our Oma. We will miss her immensely but we thank the Lord for blessing her life and are happy for her, that she is in the arms of our Lord and Savior.
