Probably envoi them* in clients for
Mr. and Mrs...I ees if uiper'.s mlarriage, is
NW* a Large family who care and,istick
together;
The K vipers were married 55• Years ago in
a church in Holland's capital, the _?ague.
The union was a result. of a meeting arrang-
ed by Mrs2 Ruiper's mother. After theymet,
the Kuipers attended a local young people's
church group and their friendshipthen
blossomed into a deep affection tr one
another.
• "I was i8 when we met," remembers Mrs.
Kuiper. "By the time I was 23, we were mar-
ried; that's a long time (five years of cour-
ting) for those days."
The Kuipers raised their five children,
two girls and three boys during some rough
tunes, including World War II. Mr. Kuiper
never saw any action during the war but he
was a chauffeur for army officers,
"It was rough during the war, we were all
so glad when it was over," said Mrs. Kuiper.
"The worst of the war was the hunger."
In the early 1950s the Kuiper's eldest son
decided he would like to move to Canada.
Mrs. Kuiper remembers asking him why'
he wanted to leave when his family uvea in
Holland.
"He came to us one day and said he would
like. to leave aro we told him tr' forget about
-as • .
Le . , .'o4
it," MP. Kuipersaid. "One Year rater, after
hlfr decided to leave;, we decided to move and
eveantually the -entre family had moved to
• the Clintonarea." •
Today the entire family mead five
children, 22 grandchildren and eight great-
grandchildren. Mrs. Kuiper said -relatives
are scattered all around the Clinton area.
"We have always liked Clinton and we
have never thought of leaving," said Mrs.
Kuiper.
She feels the main fault with marriages
today is that too many take and not enough
give.
"When we were married people always
gave more than they took," she noted.
The Kuipers agree that much of the
reasoning behind 'their happy marriage is
the ability to work together as a couple.
Both Mr. and Mrs. Kuiper have hobbies
which include knitting and intricate wood
carving. They agree that older couples must
keep busy, or life will eventuality become
unbearably boring.
The Kuipers were given a special dinner
in their honor last Saturday with 60 close
friends and family members in attendance.
On Tuesday the Christian Reformed Church
in Clinton held an open house to celebrate
their anniversary.
made and given to them by the group. A Reverend talks abort obedience
letter was received from the foster child in
Nairobi.
Final plans were made for the ham and
turkey supper to be held on June 7.
The used eye glasses which have been
collected will be sent to the Christian Blind
Mission after the June meeting.
Penny Savers will bring their pennies in at
the ,dune meeting.
Muriel Grigg closed the meeting with a
Benediction. A delicious lunch was served
by Iona Blake, Dorothy Whitely and Ada
Tebbutt.
