VALE - SJEF BERVOETS

1930 - 28.8.2024

He was 94.5 years old 

Forever the thinker.

Sjef and Ans Bervoets were very special to Ray and myself. We have known them and their three daughters since 1967, when we bought our first home next to them in Koonung Road, North Blackburn. They always enjoyed our daughter Allison standing in her cot and waving to them when they were in their front garden.

It is a small world - as a house move for them saw their new home next to James Stuart lasting over 40 years.

They then moved to Regis in Central Road, Blackburn.

Sjef’s father had a dairy farm and orchard in Holland and he attended the University in Delft. Ans was the daughter of the principal of the school they attended.
