I have such warm memories of Mr Zuidema. His Zephyr station was our family gas station. Back then, he pumped the gas, washed the windshield, and fixed flat tires. As a teenager who ran over a nail, I really appreciated that last service! He was always so kind and helpful. My father owned Zephyr Oil and respected your father so much. My condolences, it is hard to lose a loving parent. Sue Aslakson Sturgill
