It was a big shock three years ago: the death of Piet Paulusma. He had been suffering from cancer for quite some time, but chose to keep it still. He left an ex-wife and four children. Well, ex-wife … In 2003 he separated from his Joke, but according to daughter Martsje Paulusma there is one thing that the outside world doesn’t know yet.

Everyone thought they were still separating at the time of his death. Now it appears that this is not true.
“When we left the house, they were divorced,” says Martsje in the Story. “Shortly after their break, the bond between them was not very close. However, that changed quickly. “

She continues: “We also went on holiday together, celebrated Christmas and other holidays. And in the end my parents were married again. “

“Didn’t change much”

Piet himself never announced that. “Not much changed for us either. After their second marriage they continued to live separately. There was no more than five kilometers between the two houses. “

The strange thing is for Martsje that she is starting to miss her father more and more. “I cherish the beautiful moments we have had together. He had a special life and was always there for us. Even though he worked seven days a week, he was always there for his family. “
