Death Takes Second Tiny Leukemia Victim
Grands Rapids, Mich. !U.R) I
The young parents of twin girls
who died of leukemia said to
day they "can't help wonder
ing" if their unborn child will
suffer the same fate.
One of the twin girls, two-year-old
Kathleen van , Lopik,
Smith Proclaims
Sayings, Loan Month
Surplus and reserves of Jack
son County Federal association
of Medford equaled more than
10.8 per cent in relation to
memorial savings as of Dec. 31,
1955, it has been announced to
day. Of $978,411 total, 5232,327
went out as undivided profits. A
total of $281,395 went out as
dividends.
First Federal association of
Medford in 1955 made loans to
taling $936,150. Mortgage hold
ings scored a net rise of S257,000
to S2,447,814.
Oregon's savings associations
were praised by Gov. plmo
Smith Friday, when he designat
ed April as "Savings and Loan
Month." This is the 125th anni
versary of the savings and loan
business.
died Tuesday. Her identical
twin, Eileen, died six weeks ago.
The parents. Mr. and Mrs.
John van Lopik, said they ac
cepted the double tragedy as
"God's will."
"It will all be explained to
us some day," they said.
Doctors said the fact that
both of the twin girls contracted
and died of the incurable disease
was a "one in a million medical
rarity."
No Longer Suffering
"My wife and I are relieved
now that Kathleen has gone,"
said van Lopik, a 25-year-old
furniture worker. "We are ac
tually happy to know that she
no longer is suffering.
"It's a blessing that she died
and a relief for us to know she
is happy now in Heaven," he
said.
Van Lopik's brother. William,
said the couple took Kathleen's
death "wonderfully." "God cer
tainly has give them a tremen
dous capacity to understand His
work," he said.
He took the bereaved parents
into the seclusion of his home
to recoup from their ordeal and
contemplate the future.
"They can't help wondering if
their unborn child will suffer
the same fate," he said.
Doctors said Kathleen was
more active as she neared death
than was her sister who died
Feb. 26. But although Kathleen
was restless most of the day, she
died quietly after emitting a lit
tle sigh, they said.
Tears streamed down the face
of her mother, Rhoda, 25, but
she kept her composure and did
not break down. The couple's
pastor, the Rev. Raymond H.
Hann, comforted her.
Van Lopik arrived at the hos
pital only a few minutes after
the child died.
The fatal blood disease was
discovered in Kathleen only a
week before her sister's death.
