DROST @ FAMILY in sound

The sons Roelof and Arie emigrated somewhere around their twenties to Canada, Ontario. In 1961 the brothers sent a tape recording to Holland, a novelty in those days. In Dedemsvaart, the family gathered round the fireplace to let everybody tell their story. This tape is really particular because the vioces of our grandparens can be heard so loud en clear. Below three recordings of that tape.
