In loving memory of Frank VanGrootenbruel July 2, 1916 - December 15, 1988

Another year has come and gone...

Although it is a sad time for us...

we have many wonderful memories to remind us of you.

“You’ll always be our special Santa.”

We miss you Dad...

You are always in our thoughts and forever in our hearts...
