Margo Vandenberg (nee Smit)

April 6, 1927 Lisse, Holland

Died peacefully at Holland Christian Homes (HCH). One of 16 children born to Geertje Vis and Samuel Smit. Predeceased by her husband Jack Vandenberg. Mother to Diana (Pat); Rudy (Sophia); Robert (Helen); Jackie (Ed); Elly (Paul). Oma to 18 grandchildren and Super Oma to 15 great-grandchildren.

She lived through the Great Depression as a child, and as a teen, five years of Nazi occupation. In 1953 she immigrated to Canada with her sister. She raised a family with Jack and was a partner in several of their business endeavours. She volunteered in many capacities including at HCH (40 years) and at Telecare Brampton. Margo’s sense of fun, appreciation of music, deep faith, and life of service to friends, family, and community, leaves a rich legacy.

A private family funeral will be held.

Psalm 121 A song of ascents.

I lift up my eyes to the hills-- where does my help come from?
My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.
He will not let your foot slip-- he who watches over you will not slumber;
indeed, he who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.
The LORD watches over you-- the LORD is your shade at your right hand;
the sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night.
The LORD will keep you from all harm-- he will watch over your life;
the LORD will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore.
