(714) 893-2421 James Aldon VrMeer (Jim) was born in Des Moines, Iowa, on 3, 1935. Being an only child, he was the true center of attention. His precious mother, Pearl Moore VrMeer, became ill and passed away when Jim was only 12 years old. Jim stepped up to help fill that void by cooking meals so dinner was on the table when his father, Herbert VrMeer, returned home from his accounting job in downtown Des Moines. Young Jim filled some of his free time by riding the bus to downtown Des Moines, and back. He also enjoyed getting pineapple milkshakes from the Dairy Queen. Not pineapple flavored like today, but shakes where chunks of real pineapple get stuck in the straw. Sometime afterward, his father relocated the father/son duo to the city of Albany, in Northern California, where Herberts brothers were living. Jim became very close to his Uncle Bob (Herberts brother) and Aunt Crick, who would later visit Jim many times at his house in Downey. Herbert and Jim VrMeer stayed in Albany for about a year, and then relocated back to Des Moines. Maybe they missed the snow and the shoveling? Jim graduated from Johnston High School, which is located 20 minutes northwest of Des Moines. In later years, Jim proudly attended a couple high school reunions. His graduating class was very small to begin with, and naturally grew smaller over time. How small was it? It was so small that the last reunion Jim attended, shortly after the beginning of this millennium, was held in a single booth at a restaurant. During his teen years, Jim would frequently visit his mothers brother, Uncle Eldon Moore, in South English, Iowa (100 miles east of Des Moines), along with his cousins Jody and Helen. Jim always mentioned how grateful he was to Cousin Jodys family for their kindness after his mother passed. He was so grateful; his future daughter was named Jodi after Jody. Later on when Jim got his first Internet connection, he reunited with Cousin Helen (then living in Mobile, Alabama). Helen was wheelchair-bound by then, and had become a whiz at digital photo editing. Jim would email her the latest family gathering pictures, and they would be returned digitally framed, often with humorous captions. Growing up, Jim loved listening to music and shows on the radio. He even volunteered sorting records at a Des Moines radio station. He also started building an extensive vinyl record of his own. Jims first job (as it was through his last job) was in the field of accounting. He soon met a co-worker, Mickey Stanfel. Being rooted in such a small family, Jim fell in love with both Mickey and her large, loving family. Mickey and Jim VrMeer were married on 20, 1955, in Des Moines. Mickeys sister Betty was the Maid of Honor, and their brother Matt served as Best Man. ward, Betty, her husband Dan Ivanovich, and their three daughters (Deborah, Rebecca, and Cheri) moved to Southern California. Betty soon became overcome with a sickness: homesickness. This was the subject of many tearful long-distance phone calls back home to Des Moines with her Dad, John Stanfel. Betty and Mickeys Dad then told Mickey and Jim they should move to Southern California as well. He said that Jim would do well there with his accounting skills. Mickey and Jim followed her Dads advice and relocated to the most inviting place they could find in Southern California: an apartment in Bell Gardens. Betty and Dan then had another daughter, Danette, then a son Peter. Mickey and Jim strengthened their union by once again becoming co-workers at Sudduth Tires. Here they shared the same boss, Lou Georgalis, and became friends with his wife, Bee. It is highly doubtful that they had any idea the backyard pool of Lou and Bee Georgalis in Downey is where they would be giving swimming lessons to their future children. From Bell Gardens, Jim and Mickey relocated to an apartment in South Gate. were neighbors to Melvin and Roberta Van Buskirk, who became life-long friends, and Uncle Mel and Aunt Bertie to their future children. And here, the first of the future children arrived, Jodi. At this point, Mickey resigned from Sudduth Tires to become a stay-at-home mom. Jim took a job at Proto Tools in Los Angeles, where he became fluent in Spanish. With Jims job, he and Mickey would travel to places like Mexico, South America and England, and they would host international clients in their home. Mickey and Jims first house was in South Downey on Reydon Street. The trio was then upgraded to a quartet with the birth of their son, David. When David was 6 months old, Gloria Visser was hired as Jims secretary. Fast forward a few years, and Gloria and her husband, Adriaan, are the premiere baby-sitters for Jodi and David. Fast forward a couple decades, and Jims grandchildren know Gloria as Teta Yo-Yo (Auntie who is crazy and unpredictable like a flung yo-yo). Then it was time to move to North Downey, on Chaney Avenue. This abode became known as the Downey House. At first, there was no pool, the backyard was L-shaped and all grass, and the house perimeter ended at the kitchen. A pool was added. A living room was added off of the kitchen. that, Jim and Mickey got to wake up within continued... |
