Gerardina F. "Diny" Gout

Gout, Gerardina F. "Diny" GARDNERVILLE, Nev. Gerardina F. "Diny" Gout, age 101, died peacefully on March 22, 2021, in Gardnerville, Nev. She was born on August 7, 1919, in The Hague, Netherlands and was the daughter of the late Cornelia and Willem Breurkes. At age 22, Diny joined the Dutch underground resistance during the Nazi occupation of the Netherlands in World War II. She delivered information and resources to soldiers by bike and, on one fated trip, met her soon-to-be husband, Bob. Diny and Bob immigrated to the United States with their two sons in 1960. By 1973, she was a proud American citizen. The family settled in Albany, where Diny strengthened her golf game, enjoyed traditional Dutch Horlepiep dancing, and supported both sons through college. At age 99, with adventure ever before her, she left Albany for the mountains of Nevada. She was a clever wit in pearl earrings. She was that warm, homemade dinner that reminds you: you are loved. Diny is survived by her son Bart; daughters-in-law, Ellen and Monica; and grandchildren, Austin, Kate, and Elise.
