Dorothy Dykstra Obituary

We are sad to announce that on February 17, 2024 we had to say goodbye to Dorothy Dykstra of Grand Rapids, Michigan. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Dorothy Dykstra to show support.

She was predeceased by: her husband Ralph; her son Harry Dykstra; her daughter-in-law Kris Dykstra; her husband Pietsje Feenstra (Jan); and her siblings, Sjirk van der Linde, Harmen van der Linde and Aagje Stelowagen (Reimer).

She is survived by: her children, Jerry Dykstra, Richard Dykstra (Paula) and Stan Dykstra; and her sister-in-law Ingeltsje van der Meulen (van der Linde). She is also survived by eight grandchildren; 13 great-grandchildren.

Living through WWII, immigrating to a country where she knew no one and didn't speak the language, and living through the isolating COVID times were only a few of the obstacles Dorothy faced during her century of life.

Those wishing to contribute a memorial to the Holland Home Resident Assistant Fund (https://hollandhome.org) can do so online or in person.
