CREATING A LIVING LEGACY
Len and Betty Vogelaar’s commitment and connection to The King’s University all began
with Betty’s father, Cornelus van’t Land. Cornelus believed in the importance of a Christian
education, and while living in Holland, Betty and her sister were sent to an out-of-town
Christian high school. After they immigrated as a family to southern Alberta in 1950, Betty’s
dad felt obligated to help provide an opportunity for Christian post-secondary education for
students here in Alberta. Even though his finances were limited, he did his part by raising
money and encouraging people to sign up for memberships with The King’s College, as it was
known at that time.
Cornelus also instilled his high value of Christian education in
his children which has carried on in Len and Betty’s life. When
Len and Betty’s youngest daughter, Carrie, graduated from high
school they encouraged her to enroll at The King’s University
College, (as it was named at that time). Carrie thoroughly enjoyed
the music department with Dr. Jacobus Kloppers at the helm and
made many friends whom she keeps in touch with to this day. She
graduated with a B.A. in music, and obtained a two-year Church
Music Diploma in 1993. She currently teaches music for a living.
Len and Betty’s involvement with King’s remains strong through
their children and grandchildren (three of their grandchildren
are also King’s graduates).
