Nearing a Transfer

My dear Tante Dina is nearing the end of her life.  She is a tiny little Dutch woman who has lived a very full life.  My sister and I went to visit her tonight.  Her daughter is by her side, caring for her and waiting for the time when she slips away.  Tante Dina is ready to be with her sweetheart.  This picture is from a time when the family stayed in a cabin.  Tante Dina is third from the right.

From left to right: Tante Stien, Gonnie on her lap,  Tante Fiet, the two little girls I'm not sure of.  Minnie, Bill V.H., Leen, Gerard, Tante Dina, Opa Van Leer, Ome Pete.

Love to the family.  Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
