On Sunday, October 1, 2017, the Lord called home his good and faithful servant, Rev. Arthur J. Besteman of Caledonia. Art was a loving dad and grandpa that treasured his family. He was blessed with a servant’s heart, and used that gift to serve many congregations throughout his ministry. He spent over 55 years in ministry, preaching the word of God, and loving God’s people. He was preceded in death by his wife of 50 years, Audrey (Honderd); and his sister and brother-in-law, Mary Jane and Elmer Postma.
