Fanny was a spirited and enthusiastic and encouraging member of River Park Church. I had occasion to visit her a number of times and she was an impeccable, generous host. When I had grown my hair out for a part in a movie, she would reminisce with me about when many of the rebellious guys her age would grow their hair like that. She often encouraged me in my singing in church, and had a way of making me feel like a million bucks. I will miss you, dear Fanny. Can’t wait to see you again!

My late husband commissioned a painting by Fanny of Lake Louise in the late '80's as an anniversary gift. He asked for figures in the foreground, and I although whe was reluctant to do this, she added some delightful children skating beside an ice castle. I am sad to hear of her passing.

Een mooie herinnering aan Ton en Fanny

Ton die in de oorlog bij mijn Pake en Beppe logeerde en bevriend raakte met mijn vader Geert Veurman

Samen met mijn man heb ik Anton en Fanny bezocht tijdens onze rondreis door Canada .

Fijne lieve mensen die een warme herinnering hebben in onze familie

In memory of tante Zus, as I have always known her. I have not seen her in the body since I was about 12 years old. We talked over the phone and tablet the last years. We, that is Janet and I felt when she passed and yes Hedy contacted us. Zus, for us you will always be there, as you were the last of a notorious line of amazing peoples. You are all together now and it is up to us to continue that line. You and your brothers, sister and partners have taught us so well. You can be proud and rest assured that we will continue. Love and light for you and the others. René and Janet

Sweet memories of my aunt Fanny. My mom's (Metje van der Velde) twin sister as we called them. So much alike they were.

Reunited with my uncle Ton and the rest of the Van der Velde-clan.
