Slachtoffer van de oorlog

Er kwam ook een bom terecht aan de Rijksstraatweg dicht bij het huis van Ome Willem, waar Gerrie buitenshuis getroffen werd door rondvliegende scherven en ter plaatse overleed. Bij dit bombardement lieten nog 4 andere burgers bij de spoorlijn het leven, getuige een plaquette ter plaatse.
