Henrietta Mae "Pete" Hubers' Obituary
Henrietta Mae “Pete” Hubers, 95, returned to her heavenly home on Tuesday, October 30, 2018. Her devotion to her family and her firm belief in God was instrumental in living a beautiful and selfless life. Pete was born to Gerrit and Cornelia (Scheffer) Veurink in Mille Lacs County, Minnesota, on December 18, 1922. On March 25, 1948 she married William Hubers, who preceded her in death on September 30, 1993. She and William moved from Minnesota with their family to Jenison, MI in 1969. Pete and her late husband, William, opened their hearts and home throughout the years to over 200 foster children, and were strong supporters of Bethany Christian Services. Together, Pete and her husband served as short term missionaries with CRWRC, now World Renew. In addition to her husband, she was preceded in death by her son, Joel Hubers (Sandy Hingston), four infant children, two grandsons, Chad Vos and Christian Landman-Hubers, and twin great granddaughters, Delaney and Marley Vos.
