In Vancouver, Germen was known by many names - Tulip, Saint Tulipus, Blue Thunder Eagle, Silver Wizard, which testify to the many circles in which he traveled and the many lives touched by his generous spirit and wise heart. In Germen's memory, we are raising funds for the Germen John Terpstra Scholarship for students at the Pink Triangle Program at Toronto School Board. Germen was the school’s first teacher and the Triangle Program was his final professional teaching assignment before retiring. Germen (John) was vital in laying the foundation for the school’s now more than 20 year history. Through establishing this scholarship, Germen’s family and friends hope to continue his support to this vital work in perpetuity.
