Jeanne Dwarshuis

October 3, 1930 ~
May 18, 2025

Jeanne (Bronsema) Dwarshuis, age 94, formerly of Berwyn, Illinois, left her earthly body to join Jesus on Sunday, May 18, 2025. Jeanne lived and died in the blessed assurance of her salvation through Jesus Christ. She shared her gift of music with others through her organ playing at church services and various events. God blessed her with a truly compassionate heart, and she would prefer to be hurt rather than cause pain in others. Jeanne also found great joy and fulfillment in actively participating in Bible studies. Her love for her family was immense, and she was known for giving the very best snuggles. Jeanne was preceded in death by her parents, John and Cornelia Bronsema; brother, John Bronsema; son, Brian Dwarshuis; and grandson, Aaron Frens. She will be dearly missed by her husband, John Dwarshuis; daughter, Lynn and Bob Frens; son, John and Diana Dwarshuis; grandchildren and great-grandchildren, Micah and Mackenzie Frens (Caden, Madison), Noah Frens, Caleb and Jenn Frens (Jael-Jeanne, Noah-Lynn). A memorial service will be held on Thursday, May 22, at 11 a.m. at Faith Community Christian Reformed Church, 5250 Byron Center Ave. SW, Wyoming, with Rev. Caleb Frens officiating. Relatives and friends may visit with the family on Thursday from 10-11 a.m. prior to the service at the church. Those who wish may make memorial contributions to Emmanuel Hospice.

 

The service will be live streamed and can be viewed via this link.

Hi Lynn (and family), this is Jim Engel (from Ebenezer & Timothy)... I saw your Mom's obituary in the current BANNER, and wanted to offer my condolences. I recall her fondly, and all the music she provided at church and as our middle school music teacher was a blessing. She was always a very warm and friendly person (as was your Dad, too). Please accept our sympathies, and pass them along to your Dad with our regards as well... Best, Jim

Mom D. was the perfect example of a Christian and loving mother. It was a privilege and an honor that she extended her family circle to include me. I was included in family get-togethers and was even taken on a family vacation. I treasure all those times that we were able to be together--even as I now realize I must have been a handful to have around all the time. The whole Dwarshuis family will forever be an integral part of my growing up and will live in my memory as a family that loved and cared for me. I have tried to follow their example as I have raised my own family. Praise God that we will all be together again one day!
