Mr. and Mrs. Gerard 'Van
Drunen and Mrs. Cory Pullen
visiting from Holland highlighted
the 25th wedding anniversary of
-Mr. and Mrs. Peter' Van Drunen
on Friday, April 7. • ,
Mr. and Mrs. Van Drunen were
married in Holland in 1953 and
• 'came to Canada. a week later.
They were honoured with a
dinner- and reception by 'their
Children, relatives,. friends and
neighbours at Brodhagen Hall,
Here is a short summary of the •
past 25 years of their life made up
by the children. Once upon a time
a long, long time ago, Morn met
Dad and Dad met Mom. They fell
in love and after a whirl wind
courtship on the bicycle.
- -They -married- one *fine 'rainy •
day in April in the year 1953
The place was Berlicum, 14413r.
Holland and the time was 9:30
because it was cheaper than
1.0:00.
• Very soon after this big event.
Dad decided to take hiap bride of
one week on a honeymoon and
guess what! The honeymoon still
. isn't over. That particular boat
ride took them 'to a place called
Petit de Gtat in Nova Scotia,
Canada, where they met a certain
Father Girroir, and. a lasting
friendship began.
Well, after Dad Pad travelled
all that way to. Canada, he
decided he may as well see the
test of the country. And so On
they went.
• They slowly Made. their way
across • this huge new land,
stopping ,in Ontario where they
still reside.' Lucky for them that
they stopped here, for, shortly
afterward,. there came along their
first hem: a little girl named
Trudy. And after her came
Francis. Joanne. Peter and..
Michael.
There were many surprises in
store for this young eatiple from
the Netherlands-and one of them
happened to, be those long cold
winters with snow piled up to the •
tree tops. Certainly a surprise to a
couple who were used to seeitrg
only a feW inches of snow all .
winter long. They decided that
they had better invest in some
thermal underwear.
Meanwhile, during thosiT years
when the babies weregOiNr uhg
up. Dad worked very hard and in
time, became an expert welder.
But, as time passed he 'decided he
had had enough Of those 'boxed
lunches and the long bikes home
it snow blizzards and he decided
to make his secret ambition, come
-,
He and Mom, along with their
kids, cows and chickens made the
big move to lot 15, concession 5,
McKillop township. Not at all a
bad place to finally settle.
And so the story goes on ,i'm
certain we all bop' that our Morn
and Dad will have another 25
years that will bring them as
much happiness and success and
as many memories as the first and
that We'll all be very happy to
help them celebrate their Golden
Anniversary.
