My sympathies go out to you.
Perhaps Heaven has a lane set up and waiting for your Dad and mine to bowl and have a good visit. I like to think that Heaven has a few of our favorite things to do.
You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Hubble was a loved member of the great ZHS class of 1958. I am a classmate. I come to Zeeland in the summer and can't imagine not seeing Hub at Frank's. He will be missed ❤

I am visiting family this week in Holland and was saddened to hear of Hubs passing. He was such a kind man. I worked at Franks in Zeeland for several years and always enjoyed him coming in for meals. Zeeland Lanes will not be the same but will always hold dear many years of wonderful memories for thousands of people. Rest In Peace Hub.

I am sorry for your temporary loss. I have many fond memories of Hub when he was younger as well as when we became reacquainted at church. Blessed are those who die in the Lord, for they rest in peace and will rise in glory.

Hub, was a good kind hearted man who was a family friend and who loved to golf with my father at Rolling Hills Golf Course. I enjoyed bowling in Zeeland starting out in Junior League until I moved from the area. He was a highly thought of man in the community. My prayers are for peace and strength for his children, grand children and great grand children. Our deepest sympathy, The Ter Haar's
