In Memoriam

Mr. Henry Frens

On March 20, 2023, it pleased the Lord to take out of our midst Henry Frens at the age of ninety-three. He had served the congregation of Waupun many years as deacon and elder.

“For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from His” (Hebrews 4:10).

In Memoriam

Mr. Pieter Jan (John) Zekveld

With great sadness we announce the passing away on March 27, 2023, of our past elder, Pieter Jan (John) Zekveld, at the age of eighty-six years. From July 1978 until June 2022, he served our congregation as elder with the gifts bestowed upon him, serving faithfully with the love of his heart. May the Lord comfort his wife in this sorrowful loss. May He fill the empty place with Himself and sanctify it in the family circle and also in our congregation.

—Markham NRC Consistory
