A celebration of Johannes' life was held at 7:00 p.m., Wednesday, August 12, 2015 at the Blueberry Community Hall, 1/2 mile north of Beach Corner, Highway 16A Stony Plain.
Johannes Hendrik (Jopy) Schellevis (born January 25, 1950; died July 24, 2015) will be missed by his beloved wife Susan; sons Joe (Randie), Don and Dan; his grandsons Hugh and Karson; brothers Peter (Linda) and Bill (Marg); numerous nieces, nephews, friends, co- workers and family in Holland.
FPC thoughts are especially with Susan Schellevis who touched many lives as church secretary (1983-2004). She witnessed remarkable changes in church office and programs, although she worked with Rev. Lloyd Fourney for all but her last two years. But then she was hired as a part-time worker and found within a year that she was fully employed, typing Sunday Bulletins, newsletters, supporting the many tasks of the roll clerk, as well as helping as the FPC Food Bank began. At first she learned to use a Gestetner and addressograph but as the office changed she learn photocopier, fax, computer, and an automated phone system with intercom. She and Johannes will be remembered.
The obituary for her husband, Johannes Schellevis, was published in The Edmonton Journal on Aug. 8, 2015 at
