Jeanetta “Nettie” Hoogendoorn went home to her Lord on February 23, 2021, in Ripon, California. She was born Jeanetta Vanderbeek, on Independence Day July 4th, 1923, in Holland, Michigan. She became Mrs. Jeanetta Hoogendoorn 79 years ago, when she married the love of her life, Nick Hoogendoorn. Nettie was a loving wife and helpmate to her husband, Nick, and the pair worked hard together on their almond ranch. She was a devoted mother, grandmother and great- grandmother. Nettie was nearly a life-long resident of Ripon (97 years), and was a recognized member of the community. Nettie was an active member of Calvary Reformed Church, where she taught catechism and Sunday school, and was an involved member of women’s groups. Her devotion to her Lord and Savior was an inspiration to everyone around her, and her bright spirit radiated with inner joy and love. She will be deeply missed by her family, friends, and her church community.
