Not many people are blessed to see four generations of children and grandchildren in their lifetime. He was also a charter member of Immanuel Christian Reformed Church.

Brinks, Calvin and Marcia Brinks, Joyce and Bob Cornelisse; 21 grandchildren, 49 great grandchildren, and two great-great grandchildren; sisters-in-law, Katherine Brinks and Verna VanderPloeg; and brother-in-law, Don Alberta. He was preceded in death by his first wife, Helen, and his second wife, Ann.

Comments
that we have to face. Jesus said ,did and promised something that gives us comfort
and hope. In the Bible at John 11:11-14 Jesus liken death to sleep.
This comfort us in two ways: 1) we are assured by those words that our loved ones are not suffering or in pain. 2) If a person is just sleeping he will wake up!
Notice what Jesus does next at John 11:43-44, this is amazing!
Jesus promised us something similar at John 5:28,29 what a beautiful hope we have!
