The surviving children are Mrs. George Katze of Ireton, George of Orange City, Mrs. Kleinwolterink of Orange City, and at home with the mother Winnie, Alice, Annie, Rena, Mary, Bonne and Dirk. The youngest is a boy of a little more than six years. A year ago he lost one of his eyes and is now in danger of losing the sight of the other one.
