Huwelijk Govert Cornelis Tromp en Lijgina van Woerden

Het huwelijk tussen mijn ouders stond “gepland” op 15 oktober 1942.
Vanwege het gevaar van beschietingen van treinen werd door de familie in Lisse besloten om niet met de trein maar met de boot van Amsterdam naar Lemmer te reizen en hiervandaan met een trammetje naar Akkrum.
Een dag voor het huwelijk ging men scheeps in Amsterdam.
De boot werd beschoten en Kemp en zijn verloofde werden dodelijk getroffen. De artikelen over het beschieten van de tramboot “Holland”spreken voorzich.

Het huwelijk werd uitgesteld en zonder festiviteiten op 28 oktober 1942 voltrokken.
De kerkelijke bevestiging werd geleid door Ds. R. Kok uit Veenendaal.

“Want Mijn gedachten zijn niet ulieder gedachten en uw wegen zijn niet Mijn wegen, spreekt de HEERE.”

Notes about Govert Cornelis Tromp

Goof had een bollenkwekerij in Lisse op het landgoed Wassergeest tussen Lisse en het buurtschap "De Engel". Na de 2e wereldoorlog is de zaak van vader Bert gesplist. Broer Gerrit legde zich voornamelijk toe op de binnenlandse handel en Goof op de kwekerij. Goof zat in het bestuur van de HBG als secretaris, resp. voorzitter. De HBG was de bollenveiling in Lisse. Ook zat Goof in de Raad van toezicht van de Coop. Boerenleenbank, de latere Rabobank.
Goof is overleden aan een acute hartstilstand toen hij bij zijn moeder koffie dronk.
De bollenzaak werd na het overlijden van Goof verkocht omdat er geen opvolger was. Zoon Bert studeerde voor leraar Werktuigbouwkunde en zoon Peter was nog maar 16 jaar oud.
