We want to express our condolences to the entire Bootsma family, especially to Delta.
It is quite a milestone to reach 94 years old. I seemed like Dick always looked the same, never a day older. I will never forget the time I bought his 1967 Chevrolet Camper Special pickup from him many, many years ago, he said it was a good deal, and he was right, it still starts and runs good. God Bless. Hank & Johanna Timmermans
