Reina Troost (née Soetens)
TROOST, Reina (née Soetens) – Mrs. Reina Troost at the Cornwall Community Hospital on Tuesday May 5, 2020 at the age of 89 years. Loving mother of Marjanne (Bruce Meyer), Robert (Ana Aronja Martin), Eileen (James Martin), and Rene (Heather Pert). Sadly missed by her grandchildren Stephanie (Heath Houck), Ryan (Alexandra), Sylvia (Miguel Mariño), Maryssa (Jon Delorme), Erika, and Jayson, and great-grandchildren Blaine, Chance, and Jenkin. Predeceased by her husband John Troost, and her siblings Jans, Jo, Janny, Pieter, and an infant brother. Reina Troost was a very active member in her community until she was affected by a stroke in 2014. She was married to John whom she met in the Netherlands in a bike club. They were married in Brockville, Ontario, Canada and were married for 54 years before he passed in 2007. She was a member of the Cornwall CRC church, and prior to that the Montreal CRC. She was involved in many choirs over the years and in later years, senior clubs. Prior to her stroke she was involved in many different knitting and spinning guilds and the Women’s Institute in the Williamstown, Lancaster, Ontario area. She loved to entertain, tell good stories—and laugh. She had a quick wit. She will be missed by her family and many friends. Cremation has taken place. A celebration of life will be held at a later date. If so desired contributions in her memory to the Heart and Stroke Foundation would be appreciated by the family. Funeral arrangements entrusted to Wilson Funeral Home. Online messages of condolence may be made in the obituary section of: www.wilsonfuneralhome.ca
