John Dykstra Obituary

I am heartbroken to announce the death of my Dad, John Dykstra, at the age of 89 after a long and happy life. He is predeceased by his wife of 64 years Aggie and daughter Jane. He is survived by his daughter Connie, and his grandchildren Johanna and Michael. I will be forever grateful for the time I spent with Dad, the laughter we shared, the memories we created. I will miss you always Pops.
Special thanks to the staff and residents of St. Frances Manor who made Dad feel loved. They helped fill the emptiness left after he lost Mom. He loved living there.
At Dad's request, there will be no service or celebration.

Dear Connie,
I am so sorry for your loss. You were a wonderful devoted daughter to your parents and it was obvious how much they loved you by the huge smiles on their faces when you brought them to the Golf Club for a drink or a meal.
Take care my friend.

Naar Canada gaan was altijd een feestje. Ome Jan en tante Aagje waren gastvrij en namen mij zelfs mee op vakantie naar Cole´s Point. Daar waren dan ook tante Ria en ome Ad met Ruby en Gary.
Samen met Jane en Conny heb ik onvergetelijke vakanties doorgebracht.
Ome Jan was de gangmaker, altijd in voor een grapje en organiseerde uitstapjes. Ik zal hem herinneren als een warme, zorgzame, humoristische man. Ik ben blij dat hij mijn oom was.

Hey Pops, Jane and I grew up so loved. You worked hard to provide for us. Loved our time camping, fishing, golfing, cross country skiing and traveling. Thank you for being the best Dad.
You are finally with Mom and Jane. Love you all.
