Corwin Jay Bredeweg, age 84, was called home to be with Jesus on March 25th. He was born on December 9, 1937 in the small community of Dorr, Michigan. He graduated from Hope College and then attended University of Kansas where he earned his PhD in both Chemistry and Mathematics. While at KU, he met and fell in love with his beautiful wife, Carolyn Kay (Henderson) Bredeweg. They married and moved to Midland, Michigan in August of 1963, where he started his lifelong career as a Research Chemist at The Dow Chemical Co. He retired from Dow in 1994.
Corwin proved himself to be a faithful and dedicated husband, father and grandfather, true to his family and his faith. Full of strength and honor, he served quietly, doing kind deeds, both big and small, for family, friends and strangers. Corwin was actively involved in his church, Habitat For Humanity, played City League Volleyball, loved gardening, photography and traveling in their RV wherever they could possibly take it. There is comfort in knowing that he is in the arms of our loving Savior and that we will be reunited again someday.
He was predeceased by his parents, Henry and Francena (Patmos) Bredeweg; his sister Leona G. (Earl J.) VanKoevering; and sister Betty J. Nitz.
