This is my grandmother Florence.
A nurse and WWII bombing survivor.
A dutch immigrant who took a boat to the states in the late 40’s
Raised 10 kids on dairy farms in california and washington st.
A dignified beauty whose quick wit and humor
quietly graced a life of deep devotion and sacrifice.
She’s the reason i have breath and look like i do
I honor you today grandma… your 91 years will never fade.
Florence Geertsma 1919-2011
