"My Grandma Maria Dufornee-Visser
Born 17-10-1926 in Nootdorp died on 22-5-2010 in Breda. Grandma was of Jewish descent and was also proud of this.

At the age of 18 she married my grandfather Jacob Dufornee-van Biene. Grandpa was also of Jewish origin, born in Breda on 14-7-1926 and died on 18-8-2014.
Together they had 4 daughters.

Traveling was their passion and life. Every year they traveled by caravan to France and Spain and stayed on the road for months.
By then other great loves had entered their lives, their grandchildren and great-grandchildren. We were also allowed to travel with Grandpa and Grandma to the most beautiful villages in France and Spain. How grateful I am for this.
I remember them as a loving Grandpa and Grandma with the most beautiful stories they could tell.
To this day I still miss them." What a beautiful message ❤️ your grandparents must hace seen so Muchhh! ❤️
