Condolence: Our deepest condolences to all of the family. Thoughts & prayers are with you during this time.

Condolence: Lieve Winnie en familie, via Wilma en Barend hoorden we dat Thijs is overleden. Wat verdrietig voor jou in het bijzonder je mist nu je maatje die altijd aan je zijde stond en natuurlijk voor je kinderen die hun vader verloren. Wij wensen jouw en je kinderen heel veel sterkte met het verwerken van dit grote verlies. Veel liefs van Henk en Ada.

Condolence: I have known some of Mathys' children for decades from times at Acton HS and now St Andrew's in Fergus. Family relationships have been so important for them all---that closeness is to be admired for sure. What a legacy your Mum and Dad have given you -for the years lived here and for beyond too. You will miss your Dad indeed but guess there are so many wonderful memories and laughter that remain among you all...A Dad makes a big impression on who we are--you had a good one. May you all gather and support one another and celebrate a fine fellow who was with you for a long time. Blessings be there. Dave Jones

Condolence: Tante Winnie and All our cousins. Biggest of hugs and kisses. I wish I could be there in person. We will all miss Oom Thys. Our thoughts and prayers to you all. May the Lord bless you all through this time.

Condolence: Dear Tante Winnie and Family, My sincerest sympathy goes out to you all and know that you are in my thoughts. I enjoyed chatting with Uncle Thys and joking with him. On the few occasions I saw him.I fondly remember what great pals he and my dear Mum (Maud) were. I will be with you in spirit tomorrow and Friday. I am sorry that I cannot be there with you. Daryl and I will hopefully see you all one day in the future. We in the meantime hold you in our thoughts. Barb and Daryl

Condolence: I'm very sorry. Uncle Thys was a good man with a great sense of humour, and a family who loved him. I'm really going to miss him. I'm thinking of you all at this time.

Condolence: Our deepest sympathy to you Winnie & all your family. We have some wonderful memories of Thys

Condolence: We know that Thys is at peace and looking down from heaven at his loving family who are gathered together at this difficult time. Thys will always be remembered by our family as a quiet and kind gentleman. When he and Winnie would visit us on Brophy's point at my mothers home he would be sitting quietly, often with his eyes closed resting, but always listening to the conversation and surprising us with a witty comment that would make the room burst with laughter. He was very patient and he and Winnie worked together as a team to give so much to their family, friends and community. Even though Thys was not the centre of attention in the room he touched all those who had the pleasure of spending time with him and he will always be remembered. We send our love and prayers to the Splinter family. Love Kristine, Collin, Blake and Emma.

Condolence: Deepest sympathies from Bill & I. Thys was such a lovely christian man. Winnie & family our hearts & prayers are with you at this very sad time.

Condolence: Praise be to the Lord as Mathys spirit rises to rest in his arms. May you find peace in his Glory Watch for his footsteps in the sand as he walks with you through your mourning. God Bless Brenda

Condolence: You have our deepest heartfelt sympathy and condolence Winnie as does your whole family. We will hold all of you in our hearts and prayers during this sad time of loss & mourning for a kind, loving man who will be genuinely missed by all who knew him. Sharon & family
