About | Robert "Bob" Jay Geurink, age 55, was welcomed into his heavenly home unexpectedly on Tuesday, November 1, 2016. Born and raised in Holland, Bob graduated from Hamilton High School where he met the love of his life, Anne Brower whom he was married to for 33 years. For years Bob and Anne were active members of Faith Christian Center and raised their four children, Andrew, Aaron, Aric and Aimee to be followers in the faith. Currently, they attend Central Wesleyan Church. Bob was always a business man. He formerly owned and operated Bussies Truck and Auto and then, with his late father, Arthur Geurink, started A&B Farms. As current owner and operator of HES/A&B Farms, Bob ran the growing business with his three sons. Outside of work, Bob enjoyed wrenching and tinkering on equipment, dune buggies and trucks with his boys. He was a gearhead; he loved a fast car, a powerful engine and anything loud. He and Anne made frequent trucking trips to Florida for the business. On summer weekends they enjoyed relaxing up in the dunes at Silver Lake and spending time with their family. Bob was very involved in local 4-H where he encouraged and supported 4-H kids in their projects. Bob shared his passion with his daughter Aimee who raised, showed and sold livestock as well. Bob valued relationships and family and was an avid supporter of Winning at Home. He had a big heart for many local organizations including Wings of Mercy, where he previously served on the board. |
