Cor applied on April 30, 1971 and started his first working day on May 3, 1971 at the age of 22 as a sheet worker and welder. He used to work as a shifter(draaier?) at the glass factory in Leerdam, but wanted to do something outside of Leerdam.
Cor says: ,, I still enjoy working at Van der Leun and as long as that will be, I don't stop, despite my age of 72. Marius den Breejen even hired me at that time, it is unfortunate that he will not able to experience this anymore. ”
Cor cannot be found among the geraniums yet. Despite being retired for 7 years, he can still be found 5 days a week in our metal workshop as a sheet worker and welder. Ofcourse we are quite proud of that!
We thank Cor for many years of dedication and pleasant cooperation and wish him many happy and healthy years.
