We have fond memories of your Mom & Dad when we were young. Mom (Ben & Anna) would bake a pie & have Egbert & Hattie & girls over for dessert! What a wonderful thought to know they are all in Heaven together still visiting! God bless you all, & comfort you in your loss. Sue, Joleen & Phil Docken
I am so sorry for your loss. Although, I do not know your family personally, I would like to share some encouraging thoughts from the Bible. The Bible provides comfort during these difficult times. Revelation 21:3-4 states, And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away. Very soon now, we will never experience losing our loved ones in death and we will be able to see them again once they resurrected as per John 5:28-29. May these words give you a new hope.
It was my pleasure to serve with Hattie in Suriname. We had wonderful prayer times together. She had the ministry of "helps" and was a great encourager and a dear friend. She was a wonderful cook and loved to entertain.
Egbert and Hattie were the first to welcome us to Suriname, while we flew from Miami to Suriname in 1983. Our interaction with them through the next 6 1/2 years was characterized by genuine welcome and encouragement. We pray for comfort for you, her family members and close friends but also rejoice with you that Hattie is now with her Jesus, and reunited with Egbert! What hope that is for you and for all of us! One day we will be enjoying the presence of Jesus and singing the Hallelujah chorus in worship of our King, Jesus!
I have precious memories of all the Dyk family from the late '50s when my parents, Bob & Joyce Goerz, were on Jungle Camp staff with them. Trudie and I were best pals then, and Aunt Hattie always had a sweet smile and kind word. She and Uncle Eg made me feel like part of their family, including nicknames and teasing. They were much closer to us at the time than our "real" relatives whom we rarely saw. I know she is experiencing incredible joy now in the presence of the Lord, and likely meeting up with dear ones who have gone before, including my dad who went Home recently. Blessings on all her loved ones who must bear her absence.
I didn't know Hattie but I enjoy the fruits of her labor in the form of beautiful flowers at the Waxhaw Creek Retirement Apartments where I reside. Even now, there are beautiful Peony and Rose bushes that are bursting with blossoms. Often I've heard people who knew her say, "those were Hattie's flowers." Blessings on the family during this time of loss and transition. May you experience abundant measures of God's love and grace in the days ahead.Warmly,Gail BoemkerJAARS Center Waxhaw NC
When you mention Hattie to our family so many memories come to mind. She is with my Dad. Hattie blessed our family and helped us in so many ways. So Glad I will see her again ....
To Carolyn and all of the family -- I loved Hattie and enjoyed being her friend at Waxhaw. Carolyn, I was the one who met and took you to the airport several times. I will be praying that you will have a peace in her "homegoing" and knowing she is re-united with your father. She was a very special lady. I missed her so much when she moved from Waxhaw.
Sorry. I made a mistake in saying we saw Hattie in Orlando. We saw her in Waxhaw!
My best memories of Hattie are from Tlalpan when she was such a good friend of our Zapotec of the Isthmus translator. Whenever Maria wanted to go down town to the tourist market (which was often), Hattie was always ready to go and they had a ball together.
