Dear Annelies & Family !
I am so sorry to hear of the death of Sjoerd. It was a shock, as I did not think his illness had progressed so far. I remember what a competent physician he was, and how both of you were so much a part of the community. I know that God will be with all of you at this time. I pray that he will comfort you in this great loss, that He will help you keep up your courage and carry on.

Annelies & Family,

I was sorry to hear about Sjoerd's passing. I can appreciate what you are feeling since I have been down that road myself. It is always a comfort to know that he is out of his suffering and is in a better place.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your children and grandchildren at this difficult time.

Annalies and family, we are saddened to hear of Sjoerd's passing. May God's arms surround you and bring you comfort. Elaine and I were some of Doc's first clients in Kentland. He was the delivery doctor of our three sons (he was on vacation when Laura was born). We enjoyed his smile and listening to his many stories. You are in our prayers.

Annalies, I had the pleasure of knowing your family at one time and even babysitting the kids a few times as a neighbor and resident of Brook. You may remember my mom, as she had a working relationship with your husband; she was Laurel Alliss. I remember your husband as being so very kind and gentle and ready to help where he could; he helped me with paperwork preceding my marriage in 1990. I am so sorry to hear of Dr. Roggeveen's passing but do know from my own experience with the loss of my mother, that it does help to hear from others, what a positive impact he had on the lives he touched. He will be missed professionally but also as a great humanitarian and member of the community. My prayers are with you and your family. Fondly, Kathy Mattox Griffin, Lake Villa, IL.

I am so sorry to hear this. Dr. Roggeveen was a kind and loving man. I will never forget the words he once told me. "Many doctors treat the disease, I treat the patient and the disease." He was a very good, caring, doctor, and friend to me. I will never forget him.

So sorry to see that Dr Roggeveen has pasted away. He had many years of great advise and caring ways. We loved Annelies always by his side with her humor and quiet warnings to Doc to keep his story short. They were a great team with a sense of humor and meaning of family. We will never forget Doc or his coffee making skills. Gary and Sheril Schuh
