I pray you find the same peace that your dad is not enjoying with his Savior. Gary Steenwyk

My wife Marcia and I extend our deepest sympathies to the family of Arthur Schuitema. He was a first cousin of mine and I recall as a young boy many pleasant visits with him and his family on the farm in Sioux Center when my parents, Rev. John and Mable Kempers, swung by there to visit. Roger D. Kempers, MD

I witnessed the values that Arthur instilled in his children through being a close family friend to Ken, Karen and their children. This family holds the highest values and I am lucky to have been close to these fine folks. My prayers go out to you. Carl Helder
