Our beloved Joost's body was no longer able to support him and he passed away peacefully in Edmonton.

Joost will be deeply missed by his wife, Ria; sister, Mariette (John); brothers, Roland (Cathryn), Mark (Carol), Jeremy (Jen); grandma, Jean as well as many nephews, nieces, lifelong, new friends, and family in Holland.

Joost lived a dynamic life. Some of his jobs include, Donkey Baseball Wrangler, Grave Digger, and Fire Tower Lookout. Before retiring, Joost taught youth at risk both in Alberta public schools and in a detox program. He was appreciated by both students and colleagues.
