DEATH OF JOHANNA OUDEMAN - VAN BAAR, THE MOTHER OF Br JOSEPH

It is with sadness that we report the death of Mrs Johanna Oudeman, the mother of our former Provincial, Br Joseph Oudeman.

Johanna died at 10am at Nazareth House, Wynnum North (Brisbane) on Sunday, 16th May 1999 after a long illness. Br Joseph was at her side when she passed away.

We ask our visitors to pray that the Lord will receive Mrs Oudeman into his loving presence. We also ask for prayers for Br Joseph and his family in their time of sadness.

The funeral will be held at Nazareth House, Wynnum North at 1:30pm on Wednesday, 19th May 1999.
