VANDERMEER, John The Lord called home John VanderMeer, in his 90th year, after a life well lived. Making his way to Heaven on January 30, 2015. Dearly loved and missed by his wife Meino (DeJong), with whom he would have celebrated his 65th Wedding Anniversary this coming Valentines Day. John was a loving father to eight children: Hilda Smink (John), Cora DeJong (Dirk), Irene, Bill, Mike, Daniel, Wayne (Mary) and Wenda. Incredibly proud of his 15 grand-children, and blessed with 10 great-grandchildren who lovingly referred to him as their "grandpa with the birds". John had special bonds with all his grandchildren and great- grandchildren, always ready to hand out candies and treats; relishing in their smiles and high fives. Fondly remembered by his family in Holland: brother to Hinke, Hette and Rein and predeceased by his brother Nies. Though separated by distance, John never missed an opportunity to travel back to Holland or welcome them and their families in his home. John spent many years as a painter with Harm Schilthuis & Sons Limited. He had a deep passion for birds, building and growing a beautiful farm with a wide array of birds in West Lincoln. John would never be anywhere without some type of birds around him right up until his passing. He was truly in his element when outdoors, in nature and of course hunting ducks and rabbits. A special thank you to the West Lincoln Fire Fighters for their dedication and their aid that was provided to John. The family will receive visitors in the York Maranatha Christian Reformed Church (33 King Avenue, York, ON) on Tuesday, February 3, 2015 from 6-9 p.m. followed by a memorial service in the Church on Wednesday, February 4th at 11 a.m. Interment in St. John's Cemetery, York, for family, will take place prior to service. Donations can be made in John's honour to the McMaster Children's Hospital. On-line condolences, may be left at: www.millerfuneralchapel.ca
