On March Jlst , 1986 , the Consul-General of State of Israel
placed the news of our recognition by Yad Vashem on the Telex.
Thereupon the Gram Rapids Press wrote an article about ua ,
which was written soberly am thoughttully •
On April 10, 1986 the story reached our Church bulletin, after
Holy Week am Easter.
·
The prerlous Slbiq, 01D" Senior Pastor Dr.Shoup had asked us
after the service to join him in tront oft.he Churchcongregation
and introduced us. We joined in the singing of the hymn J61:
" Once to t!IVery man an:i nation " •
After that I spoke of the early commitment of our Reformed Church
following the Nazi occupation of The Netherlams.
Our Synod had a message read11 from all pulpits , warning us of the
difficult years to come, exerted us to stand on principle and reminded
us of the words of the prophet Isaiah as printed in this Newsletter.
I eITtphasized that these wellknown words, took on a immediate meaning
stood out , came alive ,fleshed out and took on a life all its own.
It became our guidance , well nigh a mar·ching order during the 5 years
to come of persecution, bloodshed, discrimination, cruelty, treason
and tears.
It was the strength of our faith that carried us: a solid rock.
Many martyrs fell in our mostly '\D'larmed struggle •

This too , next to the Gram Rapids Press article becomes part of
your heritage.
May all of you be spared for the calamities, om- generation worldwide
had to face , with 57 milliol7 soldiers and civilians dead •
But when difficulties or adversities do come , turn to God's Word •
It is a sure f oun:iation •

In recent years, PETER and ADRIANA (JEAN)
TERMAAT have received recognition for their
roles in World War II as part of the Dutch
resistance movement. Most recently they
were honored by the Yad Vashem with a
medallion which reads:
To Peter and Adriana Termaat - The
Jewish peopl,e recognize that "whosoever saves one 1,ife saves the entire
universe." The Baal, Shem Tov.
Their service is expressed well by the words
of the Prophet, Isaiah, " ••• Shelter the
homeless, do not betray the fugitive."
(Isaiah 16:3 NEB)
Peter and Jean were further recognized by
our congregation at the close of worship
Sunday.

Dear Mr . and Mrs . Termaat:
On behalf of the Jewish Community Council of Metropolitan Detroit,
I would like to extend congratulations to you on the occasion of
your receiving the Medal of the Righteous from the government of the
State of Israel.
The courageous work of people such as yourselves in opposition to th e
Nazi death machine stands as a shinin~ example among the many dark
episodes which made up the Holocaust. Although th e reco gnition comes
many years after your brave deeds, it is sincere and well-deserved.
Again, we commend you for your selfless courage and decency during a
time wh en thes e qualities were, sadly , in short supply.
Sincerely ,
··dd,u~~

Mr . Moshe Bar , Consul
Consulate General of Israel
111 East Wacker Drive
Chicago, Illinois 60601
Dear Mr. Bar,
Mrs.Termaat and I and our children and grandchildren want to thank you
for your kind reception on March Jlst.
I have enclosed two copies of the article which appeared in the Grand
Rapids Press on that day , and if you would so advise , will forward
one also to the Yad Vashem Authority.
What we missed in the article was our positive reference to the words
from Isaiah in the 16th chapter vs~ :
11 Shelter the homeless, do not betray the fugitive 11
It confronted from our pulpits in the Reformed Church, all members
with the coming sacrifices and these words took on a life of their own
virtually as a command.
And so our geneology goes on: from my mother who as a young girl in
the late 1890's went at night over their jewish neighbors to lite
the oil lamp at Sabbath's commencement, and what we have been able to
hand o~ver to our children and grandchildren and friends.
Blessed be Israel.
Very sincerely yours,

Mrs. Termaat and I want to thank you for the kind wox-ds you
spoke to us before personally handing to us the Righteous
Gentile Medal and Certificate of Honor.
Please accept also the appreciation f)-om our children and
grandchildren to graciously made them feel very welcome.
The second verse of the poem "The song of the eighteen dead"
which was written by our fellow resistance man Jan Campert,
which poem proved for him a premonition, might sum it all up.
It reads:
11 0h bright and lovely lahd farewell
Farewell free dunes and shore
I vow that from the hour you fell
I thought of ease no more.
What ' can a loyal man and true
At such a time essay,
But bid his wife and child adieu
And fight the useless fray? 11
We never overcame the feeling after
might have done more.
Blessed be Israel •
Very sincerely yours

Ber gen NB , 4 a pr i l 1978
Liev e mensen ,
Sorry dat ik zo lang gewac h t heb met op jullie brief te rea geren , terwij l i k
er juist zo b li j mee was. Daa r war en versc ~illende re denen vo or uite raard,
maar behalve de strik t noodzakel i j ke dingen die gedaan moesten worden i.v. m.
de notaris ( e n mijn ei gen belasti ng a angifte v66r 1 april ) l eek het wel of
er met het wegva ll en van de spanning e en soort apathie over me kwam .
Maar laat ik nu e ers t zeggen dat i k het met jullie r edener i ng helemaal eens
ben - en jullie conclusi e is kennelijk g eba se erd op het rapport van Ton W. dat het onjuis t en ongewenst zou zijn de kinderen te betrekken in deze affaire.
Late n we het maar verge ten en blij zi jn , dat we elkaar no g heb ben en onze
onderlinge r e latie z uiver is.
Eén din g moet i k recht zette n . Gé he ef t geen enke l re cht op een e rfd ee l.
Er was geen testamen t en dan is er in de wet gere geld dat alles gelijkelijk
v erdeeld wordt en het deel dat toe komt aan een inmi dde ls overleden kind
v ervalt aan diens kinderen , ergo de k i nder en trede n dan in de re cht en van
d e (in dit geval)vader. Dat re cht kan niet ontnomen worden . De kinderen hebben mij ook gemachtigd. Ik he b ze destijds voor d e keuze gesteld "iemand"
aan te stellen met ber e idheid mijnerz ijds die t aak op me te n emen indien
zi j dat wensten. Dat is z o gebeurd .
Bijna gelijktijdi g met jullie bri ef werd me ono mstotelij k duidelij k dat ik
geen bewijs kan leveren dat ~ t grafmonument veranderd is. Fa.Sto e l, die het
werk destijd-s uitvoerde '- a -r::en 1.t::v~i:a.e e-i.u . 111::: e ri, geen Öuc umen1,a.-c1e
meer uit 194 3. Rem was tot e ni ge tijd in de oorlo g gebrui kel i jk dat de opdrach tgeven een officiele foto van het graf kreeg, maa r z o ' n foto he e ft bij
mijn wete n no oit be staan . Dan zou ik heQ zeker gezien heb ben en zou hij ongetwijfeld do or Moeder bewaa r d zijn . De Hee r Ne e f van Stoel wist niet meer
precies te zeggen wanne er men de tradit ie i.v. m. oorlo gstoestanden moest
opge ven. Al met al heb ik de r ekening)z ~nde r verd er co mmenta a r bjtaa ld .
En dat was dan dat.

we er opbellen. Trouwens op Moeder's verjaardag hebbe n ze me zelf ge be ld.
Vond ik er g fi jno Van Greet hoor ik op het ogenb lik niet zo veel, maar dat
kan ook aan mij li ggen, want i k ben zo traag me t c orrespondentie mo ment e e l
en er ligt e en grote stapel onbeantwoo rd e brieven. Gr eet en Peter gaan binne nk ort ( Me i ?) met vac antie naar Grie ken land; een eilandje in de buurt van

Mo~e lij k zijn Cor en Dori met de paasdagen er een paa r dagen t usse nuit ge we e st . I k heb al een paar keer v er geef s gepr obee r d Dori te be ll en voor een

Gisteren belde een vriendin uit Den Haag me op om te v e rt ellen , dat Hon

het was a l e en keer uit ge ste l d wegens plaa ts gebre k . Zo mo gelijk zal ik een
dezer dagen een bezoekje brengeP- , maa r dan moet ik bijna wel b l ijven logeren "erge ns". Zal wel zien .
En dat is dan e i genl i jk het ein d van mij n bri efje . Hopeli jk ko m ik dezer

Lieve allemaal:
Ik wil probeeren om mijn gedachten op pailer te zetten, met zekere bijzonderheden
met betrekking op mijzelf . Jullie zult wel niet kunnen begrijpen, waarom onze brief
niet aangekomen is , wel eenvoudig omdat we hem nooit hebben verzonden.
Toen het na enkele weken goed tot mij doorgedrongen was, w ter allemaal gebeurd was
in de loop der jaren , en welke houding Jaap had genomen , kon ik haast niet gelooven ,
dat hij zoo bewust zijn Moeder en zijn zusters had benadeeld . Hij scheen totaal vergeten te hebben , dat hij zijn zusters en zwagers noodig heeft gehad om directeur te
worden na Vaders overlijden . De drie origineele ool1lillissarissen hadden Veerman willen
hebben , als een zooveel oudere en meer ervaren oandidaat, maar onze family bracht in
een meerderheid van stemmen , waardoor zijn benoeming plaats vond .
Voordat wij naar America vertrokken , kwam hij naar ons toe en zei , dat .!!.!J n i e t ~
dat de aandeelen het land verlieten en mij als het ware dwong om ze over te geven ,
vergetende dat ik ook ~q de zaak h~d ewerkt voor kost en inwoniny en een zak~eld van
Juni 1932 tot lJan . 1939 . Hij wist dat bij vergoeding had ontvangen of zeer binnenkort zou ontvangen voor de in de oorlog gevorderde auto,s, en door dit te verzwijgen
ons zeer bewust benadeelde.
lijda werd gedwongen om de aandeelen over te geven, omdat hij de "zaak ging verkoopen"
en daardoor de aandeelen noodi had , De verkoop gine toen prompt niet door .
Ik weet niet wat hij aan Corry heeft verteld om ze har afhandig te maken .
Een ander vraag is hoeveel aandeelen had hij oorspronkelijk in zijn bezit. Als het er
meer dan twee waren , waarom?
Wij vertrokken naar Ameri$A, zooals jullie weten in Januari 1952, dus ruim 25 jaar
geleden. In elk geval heeft Lyda een onderhoud gehad met Jaap in of voor 1973.
met betrekking tot al dit , dit is een zoogenäamde rnondelinrestuiting( binnen JO jaar) .
En dan nog adviseeren of dwingen(?) aan Moeder om de huisjes te verkoopen in Hillegom
en de waarde te gebruiken voor een hypotheek aan een volkomen vreemde in ruil voor een
vestigi~s vergunning voor hem zelf in Bergen. Deze transactie w~s niet in Moed rs
belang , aangezien Piet en Lijda het initiatief hadden genomen in de Raad van Commissarissen voor een waardevast pensioen , ten voordeele van ~oeder .
Hij benadeelde Moeder en daardoor de erven voor een aanzienlijk bed.ra~ . Onroerende
goederen, zooals de huisjes in Hillegom zijn zeer in waarde gestegen(20x of meer)
Dit ruikt naar misbruik van vertrouwen en ik ben dan ook zeer verontwaardigd . Iedere
keer als ik er aan denk word ik kwaad , dat wij zoo beetgenomen zijn. Voeder en nu h&ar
erven hebben nooit kunnen profiteeren van de meerwaarde van haar onroerend goed.
Ik vraag me zelf dan ook af , moeten wij dit allemaal nemen?
Na eenig nadenken zijn wij besloten om in Nederland advies in te winnen van een
expert , buiten de fami _, om de zaak uit te zoeken en te tr chten dit als nog op te
lossen in zoo goed mogelijke verstandhouding ~et alle partijen, en zoodoende voor de
zusters eenig rechtsherstel te krijgen .
Wij hebben inmiddels het eerste contact in deze richting gelegd.
Familie aangeleg enheden van een meer plezi erige aard moeten wacht en op een volgende
brief. Ontvang de hartelijke groeten van ons beiden •

Dear Bill
Thanks a lot for sending us the notes
a couple of students made after our visit last year.
One can only try to make up for the lack of direct
involvement of the present generation in the horrible
circumstances then.
Thinking back from the time we were young , how
real were then facts to us which occurred in the latter
part of the 19th centmry?
We are looking forward to be with you and the students
again •
Please find enclosed a resume which I prepared on
your advice o We hope to follow the lead you gave me.

Once again we all agree that you did a splendid job here

Your presentations were interesting and well
suited to our needs.
It sure was a treat for us to be able to dine together with
your sons, your daughter-in-law, Mandy and Lorraine.
Now I must focus on my project to have you receive honorary
degrees in the spring.
I shall be in touch soon as I inevitably am to call on you
for something or another.
In the meantime, we hope that the coming holiday season is
enjoyable for both of you and your family.
Cordially,
William C. Baum
