December 18, 1926 ~ October 14, 2015
Miny finished her earthly journey on October 14, 2015 at Haven Hill, Penticton. Her pilgrimage began December 18, 1926, in Steenwijkerwold, Holland. She married Hendrik ten Veen in 1946, and together with their first child, immigrated in 1953 to Smithers, Canada, leaving behind her parents, Willem and Sophie (Groen) Bos, her four brothers and two sisters. Until Henry’s passing in 1997, they lived in several different regions and towns throughout British Columbia, where both inside and outside the home, plants and flowers flourished under the care of her green thumb. Miny enjoyed swimming and working hard, especially baking, cooking, cleaning, knitting and sewing. She could never get enough of fishing or flowers! Miny moved to Penticton after marrying Dan Power on March 15, 2003. She leaves behind Dan and his family; a sister, Gea van Assenbergh, in Holland; seven great-grandchildren, nine grandchildren and four children—Victor & Lucille, Kamloops; Netty & Gordon Palmer, Calgary; Henny & David Thormoset, Calgary; Bill & Cheryl, Prince George. We celebrate her 88 years and final arrival home, reunited with son, grandson and countless others enjoying the love and grace of Jesus, our Saviour and Lord. Internment Peachland Cemetery Nov 7/15 @ 1:00 pm. Condolences may be sent to the family through
