Obituaries
NICK VAN NES
In one tragic moment, Feb. 23,
2001 Nick van Nes of RR1, Ethel
began his eternal journey. Nick was
27.
Born on March 8, 1973, Nick was
the son of William van Nes, and the
recently deceased Margaret van Nes.
He was a beloved brother to Terry
Ann van Nes of Ethel, Mary Lynn
and Tom Ott of Modesto, California,
Kathy and Pawel Brudnicki of
Mississauga, Tina and John Vehof of
Bright, Bill and Cindy van Nes of
Ethel and Bob van Nes of Ethel.
Nick was also a dear uncle to Helen,
Theresa, Melissa, Thomas, Krysia,
Eric, Jessica, Jozef, Julia and Nicole,
and beloved grandson to Johanna
Terpstra of Brussels. He will also be
missed by his close friend Mike
Stevers and special friend Nicole
Horrigan.
The family and extended family
prayed for Nick on Monday after-
noon and received friends in the
evening at the Schimanski Family
Funeral Home, Brussels. A funeral
mass was celebrated at St. Ambrose
Roman Catholic Church, Brussels,
Wednesday, March 1 at 1 p.m.
Spring interment will be in St.
Ambrose Cemetery, Brussels.
Pallbearers were brothers, Bill and
Bob, brothers-in-law, Tom, Pawel
and John and close friend Mike.
Nick lived life with a a passion
and ensured each day was full. He
was a fanner with a vision for the
future and was dedicated to farming
with his father and two brothers, Bill
and Bob. He was also very active at
St. Ambrose Roman Catholic
Church, in broomball, soccer, base-
ball and in Junior Farmers.
Because of the recent death of
Nick's mother, Nick had an under-
standing of death beyond his years.
He was strong in his faith and under-
stood that when you do something,
you do it with God. He had a great
respect for God's role in the crops he
grew, and the cattle he raised and
milked.
Nick brought joy to life for his
family and friends and will always
be remembered by his credos: live
life as though there is no tomorrow,
and always dance as though no one's
looking.
May the strength of Nick's faith
carry us through this difficult time
during this Lenten season where we
are reminded of the passion of our
Lord Jesus. Amen.
Give Mom a hug. We love you ...
Dad, your brothers and sisters.
Nine members of the Walton WI

ing, Wednesday afternoon at the
home of Marjory Humphries.
Business was conducted by Leona
McDonald opening with the Institute
Ode and repeating the Mary Stewart
Collect.

correspondence was attended to.

ing Aug. 4 and Sept. 14.
